  I was thinking of trying new Thermal paste. I've searched around to figure out how the liquid cooling works and what is the actual "liquid" used. So far I haven't found info on it. The hypothesis is that maybe it is leaking or evaporating because at least in my case the problem has been gradually increasing. For a while putting a fan on the back fixed the problem, but this fix is no longer effective for me most of the time. It wouldn't be hard to make a small hole in the copper pipe at the right place, add some liquid and solder the thing shut again but which liquid and how much?

  my sp4 flickering started from a narrow bar at downside of the scren and during a month transform to a whole scren flickering, I use your solution and it makes the flickering reduced in size back to what it was at first.

  @jeffreythe00 Hallo, my Surface 4 is also getting worse day by day (flickering starts 3 years and 4 month after buying..... of course no computer, tablet, phone should be older than 1 year and a half....customers have to support MS ). I, too, tell everbody NOT to buy these products. If MS have given me an answer to my problem, even if I have to pay some €, I could see this different. So they stole my time (diagnostic tools, setting back, erase all apps, they asked me to send a video, lenght at least xx minutes) and NOTHING ever happened to help me. So don't buy a MS computer'!

  I confirm that the flickering on my Surface 4 Pro disappears during video playback as described above. As soon as I move the mouse it starts again until the video controls disappear from the screen.

  Issue stems from hardware not properly repainting static windows. Solution: millisecond clock in background

  Agreed. This solution only lasted a week. Will look at upgrading as out of warranty.

  This is the one I bought two weeks ago. It took me a week to get from Germany to Spain. Luck. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Microsoft-Surface-pro-4-Pantalla-LCD-Cable-Flex-Umbaukabel-M1010537-003-Neu/133271750323?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
