Problem with Minecraft (horrible flickering) HELP

Hello, I just bought a nice HP laptop running Windows 8.
I'm downloading Minecraft and when I start a game, the screen starts flashing with a lot of white flashes, making it impossible to play! Can someone please help me!

I've already tried:
- Switching Java to 64-bit (the result is the same)
- Changing Minecraft version or launcher but it’s the same
- Completely uninstalling Minecraft and Java and trying again, but the problem is still the same...

Please help me, it's been over 2 weeks that I've been dealing with this issue!

    Hello, the graphics card was already updated, but thank you very much for your help.

    I solved the problem by going to the NVIDIA Control Panel > 3D Settings > Manage 3D Settings > Preferred Graphics Processor > High-performance NVIDIA Processor.

    I hope this can help others with the same issue.

    Bye :'D

    Hello,

    Have you thought about updating your graphics card driver?
    You will find the update on the manufacturer's website for your card.

    Writing in proper French isn't mandatory, but it's better for being understood.
    I always end up finding what you're looking for, and I never find what I'm looking for.
