Screen flashes black

nessin · Jun 8, 2007

For some reason my screen keeps flickering to a pure black layer and then back to the game, almost like the screen is refreshing but it only happens once every minute or so. I have the latest patch installed and I've updated all my drivers.

Edit:
Forgot to mention this is on Doomsday, without the Armageddon expansion.

Windows Vista 64-bit (also had the problem on Windows XP SP2)
ATI Radeon x850

Have you renamed your avi folder to avi.old?

If that dosn't help, please run dxdiag and post that info in this thread.

Someone writing to you with ICQ in the background?

nessin · Jun 8, 2007

Renaming the avi folder didn't solve the problem, but it did make the screen flash back and forth consistently every few seconds while in the main menu, but after loading a scenario/save its still the same.

Also its not a problem of another application in the background forcing itself into the top window position.

Are you running fullscreen or windowed mode?

nessin · Jun 8, 2007

Fullscreen. I didn't even know you could run in windowed mode, how do you set that?

Edit: Nevermind, tracked it down with a Google search, I'll see if its any different trying the game in Windowed mode tonight.

Gaute65 · Jun 8, 2007

try and update to the latest driver for your graphic card. Are you using vista 64 bit?

nessin · Jun 9, 2007

As I mentioned in my first post, I have Windows Vista 64-bit and I've updated all my drivers to the latest version I could find.

Edit: Same problem comes up when running in Windowed mode

Gaute65 · Jun 9, 2007

Your Ati drivers are from 17/5-07. The newest drivers are from 31/5-07.

Latest ati drivers: http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/vista64/common-vista64.html

If this is not helping, there must be a program running in the background. Something like musicmatch, virusscanner or similar. Try and disable all unnecessary programs running in the background

nessin · Jun 9, 2007

I do have the latest version (from May 31st), you're confusing the final driver date version with the date the actual drivers were posted on ATI. I don't know where the version number is being pulled from in the DXDIAG output, but my actual display driver and ATI control center both reflect the proper version contained with the drivers posted on the 31st.

I'll work on disabling and renabling applications today to find out if any of them are causing a conflict.

Did you do an upgrade from Windows XP or did you do a clean install of Vista?

nessin · Jun 18, 2007

I had no luck tracking down a particular application which may be causing the problem, and I killed every process I could out of my entire process list.

I did a full clean install of Vista, but like I said I also had the problem in Windows XP before.

Quanto · Jun 18, 2007

I've had the similar problem, if you are running steam, that ussually causes the problem the most for me, i ussually shut that down.
If it isn't steam, try Xfire, again, for me xfire can cause that problem. I ussually run winamp in the background but minimized, if you run winamp maximized that can also cause the flicker.

Hope that helps :X
