Model: UX533FD
Frequency of Occurrence: Always
Reset OS: No

Last edited by Quarter on 2019/12/9 09:37 As described above, the webcam image has grey lines and occasional green flickers. This only occurs when AC power is plugged in, everything works perfectly when using battery. I have removed and re-installed drivers with no success. This is a brand new laptop that I removed from the box yesterday. I see that there are two other questions with the same issue, but no answer has been provided. Is this a hardware issue and do I need to return my laptop or is there a software fix?

Hello.
I have a brand new ASUS Vivobook (Asus VivoBook S 15.6" FHD Core i5-8265U Laptop - Moss Green SKU: S531FL-EJ545R). The in built webcam flickers with grey lines then a green screen every 30 seconds when I'm doing a video call through Zoom. As people here have suggested, it stops when I unplug the power charging cord.
