Hello all,

Does anyone have a solution to why when I scroll my screen goes from white to  pink, I can't stop noticing it.  I was watching you tube and when I scrolled down to read comments I could clearly see the pink fading in and out.

The 11/2 update fixed the tint and flickering issue for me.. glad I gave it another chance buying the SP4 and installing the update.  The funny thing is when I did the update once the display driver still showed the old version and of course the tint issue remained. But doing the update again fixed it.

Microsoft just released a firmware update that has fixed the problem for me. See:

https://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/support/install-update-activate/surface-pro-4-update-history?os=windows-10

No more screen flickering or tint changing. The update should be titled System Firmware Update -11/2/2015.

MODERATOR EDIT (11/3/2015): I marked this as the answer - thanks for the confirmation Jacob!  For those of you receiving "display adapter...stopped responding" errors on Surface Pro 4 please share here, a thread specific to that error...

    Me too, except all white pages show an obvious color profile/temperature change as I scroll. It seems to affect the entire Microsoft Edge browser, because I can see the change even in the white address bar (i.e. not just on the white background of the website).

    My screen tint will change to a yellowish brown when I scroll on websites that have video, it will pop back to normal once I scroll past the video content. I'm also able to replicate it in the Twitter app.

    Just download chrome for the time being. I haven't had any of these issues while using chrome. Hopefully they will fix edge soon.
