When I click on "maximize window" icon (fullscreen mode) in MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint applications, my screen starts flashing (fast blinking to black). This is a fresh, fully updated Windows 8.1 installation, on a new Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 14 20DM0-08G (with Intel HD Graphics 5500).

  • other software works OK (also in maximized mode).
  • MS office apps in not mazimized mode works OK
  • disabled hardware graphics acceleration
  • OffCUT.msi app reports nothing important to this issue

Any hints how to deal with this?
