The tournament starts Sept 1st. We can still play before that though.

[MicroScreen2]

i dont have it anyway :01:

[bilko]

am i right in saying its a known issue with geforce cards - this black flickering?

[SingaBoiy]

Nope. I got a Ti4200 and it doesnt flicker

The only time my game flickers is when someone signs on msn the box that pops up fucks with the game untill it dissapears.

What drivers do you have installed for your graphics card?

[SingaBoiy]

I just installed the omega drivers and now im having some problems. I guess Ill go back to the latest nvidia drivers. Or maybe some beta drivers.

I also installed the omega drivers. Right after I installed them I played Doom3 and noticed the flickering. Got rid of the drivers replaced it with lastest Nvidia and it worked fine again.

Yea, Im about to dump them. I was trying to get my g/f to play so she could be freaked out. :lol: But the damn voices would repeat them selves. I thought it was the OCing at first but then I remembered the drivers.

i installed the new drivers over the top of the omega ones i had in place
it seemed to install them ok, can u talk me through uninstalling the drivers completely and then fresh install of nvidias? - i know their drivce cam in an exe so installing wont be an issue only removing the existing

Right click my computer then click properties. Click the Hardware tab then Device Manager. Double click display adapters then double click your card name. Go to the driver tab then click rollback if u had nvidia drivers before or press uninstall then ok. Hopefully that helps. :)

[bilko]

yeah ill give it a go when i get home
i also used rivasomething cant remember the full name its an over clocker, but its not turned on and even if i do switch it on its setting are set back to original values
so i take it that wouldnt effect it....not being turned on

it must be a omega drivers

[bilko]

yeah its something to do with the omega drivers
i uninstalled and reinstalled the offical ones and its all good, pretty good game
