Bought a new 13.3" MBA two weeks ago. I've noticed that sometimes when I wake it up by lifting the lid, there will be a second or two of screen color flickering in the top 3rd of the display. It doesn't happen when I am using an external display.

I'm pretty much always running Chrome when this happens. I disabled Chrome's hardware acceleration on a whim. That may have made it somewhat better. Hard to tell. Not sure if it's related to Chrome or not because I pretty much always have it running. But the flicker is not just in the Chrome window, it runs the full width of the display.

Any thoughts? Worth a trip to the Apple Store? Or is this no big deal or has an easy fix?

Thanks in advance

Thanks! I did the NVRAM a few days ago. Just did the SMC reset this morning. I'll give it a few days and see how it goes.

Thanks again,
Chris
