I know there's a lot of posts where people have screen flicker issues, but what I'm finding online is that it's either with an external monitor, or that it flickers so bad that the screen goes black.

What I'm experiencing is an occasional flicker here and there that lasts for a fraction of a second. But sometimes continues for a while, but the flickr is minute.

I have "automatic graphic switching" turned to off. This is because there's a compatiblity issue with Adobe CS4 and Mountain Lion and it would crash everytime I tried to do certain tasks. By Adobe's instructions, turning graphics-switching off solved the problem. I have the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB with this laptop. I also have the Hi-Res, anti-glare screen if that makes a diffrence.

Any ideas?
