When I play MS CART full screen with hardware acceleration on my STB
Velocity 128 (AGP) the screen starts to flicker. When I play in a window (or
full screen but with the menu bar) everything is ok but the harware
acceleration does not seem to be used. I have the new drivers
(4.10.01.0119).
Without hardware acceleration I get 17 fps and 35 fps with hardware
acceleration, however the screen is flickering.
Does anyone experienced the same problem???
Thank you!

I have the same card and the same problem. To solve it, I used the CNRL F and
CNTL H keys in the in-game screen to change the distance that the textures are
drwn in. When I set it all the way to max distance at 31 the problem completely
goes away! Let me know if this helps. I have heard of others having the same
problems.

I have a Viper 330 which is based on the same chipset (nVidia 128). I, too,
suffered from flicker until Diamond released their latest drivers last week.
The flicker is gone and I can get frame rates in the 30's with no opponents.
Also, FS98 is fun because acceleration turned on in a window with the Viper
(and probably your Velocity 128).
Check STB's website and email their support team. Ask for them to fix their
video driver. Chances are they are already aware and working on an updated
video driver.

Any info would help,

I have heard of some people curing this by editing the CART.INI file and
setting the sync-refresh line to true.

I'm running it with a Diamond Viper 330 in Full Screen and I am NOT seeing
any flicker at all.
