Laptop screen flashes

Hi. My laptop screen started to flash last night and it jumps between the Desktop and Start screens. The icons on the taskbar also disappear and reappear when it flashes. I see that others have had this problem on another thread but it doesn’t look like a solution was posted after the initial reply.

 

So far I have used F8 to get to Advanced Boot Options to run a system restore. I did this using the last HP update as a reference. The restore ran fine but didn’t fix the problem. I tried to go back to the previous update and run another restore from that but I then got the message that the restore didn’t work and my c drive could be corrupted. I cannot run a check on that drive as the laptop will not let me log in as administrator from the Command Panel app when I right click on it.

 

II've been working on this problem for the last 2 hours and don’t know what to try next and would appreciate some ideas. I’m not very techie so simple instructions work best. Thanks.
