Do you mean ever since you restarted your pc with the gpu plugged in again?

Yes

I would turn off power to pc via power supply. Then pull the power plugs from the gpu, and remove the gpu from the pcie slot. Reseat the gpu, plug in the power to gpu, and restart the pc. See if this helps.

Think maybe a bios battery pull might help?

Bios reset is when you can't get your computer to start. You could simply go in to bios, under exit, click on reset settings to original/optimal settings and restart if you want to. Uninstalling and reinstalling your gpu drivers can't hurt either. However usually getting color flashes indicates a hardware problem not windows usually.
