Step 1: Check the Windows updates for any latest driver updates.Ī) Go to the Desktop Interface of the computer and press “Windows Logo” + “X” keys on the keyboard and click on “ Control Panel ”ī) Change the “ View by” option from “ Category” view to “ Large icon ”ĭ) Click on “ Check for updates” link from the left hand side of the “ Windows Update ” windowĮ) If the updates are available, then install all the updates listed there.

I would suggest you to update the graphics card drivers from theĬomputer or graphics card manufacturer’s website and check if the issue persists. This could be due to the out dated graphics card drivers installed on the computer. Please let me know the make and model of the computer. However, you are able to go to the Desktop Interface without any issues. From the issue description, I understand that after updating to Windows 8.1, you are unable to use the Start Screen on your computer as it flickers betweenĪ blue screen and the desktop.
