Hi Arnaldo

Could you elaborate on something? Is this flickering you see a jumping
or vibration of the screen (a repeated fast changing of the size of the
screen by a few millimeters in the side to side direction for example),
or do you mean that you see a fairly fast "blinking" of the screen? The
later is most commonly caused by using a refresh rate of 60 HZ (or
something less than 75 HZ) and you may be able to fix this by using a
different resolution (going from 1024X768 to 800X600 for example) or,
depending on the capability of your drivers, changing the refresh rate.
Changing the name of the monitor that Windows recognizes can also allow
a different refresh rate.

Regards,
Bill
