I’m facing a serious issue with my Lenovo Legion Y520 laptop (Windows 10), and I’m seeking your help. A few days ago, I installed a software from an unreliable source, and shortly after that, my laptop’s screen started flickering. I also noticed some troubling activities, such as strange emails being sent from my account and tweets appearing without my consent.

Concerned about a potential virus, I took action and formatted my laptop, which temporarily resolved the screen flickering problem. However, the flickering has returned, and I haven’t installed anything and have formatted the system again and it didn’t resolve the issue.

I’m at a loss as to what might be causing this persistent issue. If anyone has encountered a similar problem or knows of a possible solution, I would greatly appreciate your input.
