IE8 flicker fix

IE8 Flickers when scrolling fix.

IE8 Flickering starts after an update applied from Intel for motherboard 82945G.
  • I tried with Microsoft answers but did not work though the recommendations are for removing the IE Addins.
  • There is another thread from super user that also says that there are some issues with flash on 32-bit IE 8 in Windows 7 64-bit. I did uninstall flash .
Ultimately I understood that a recent update for Intel motherboard drivers 82945G from Intel created the IE8 Flickering.



I used the mother board driver from Microsoft instead of Intel and it solved the issue

Device Manager > select the Graphics card > Update Driver > Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer > Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation – WDDM 1.0)
