I have just reinstalled SCGT after a long time away from the game. I am using Direct3D and keep getting lots of flicker - the game blacks out for a fraction of a second every few seconds. Anyone else experience this and solved it? I've got a PIII 733 with 256meg RAM, Diamond Viper videocard with DirectX8 installed on Windows2000. I'm running 1.55m of the game. James
If your in the dashboard view, press the F4 key to turn the dash off/on and the flicker should disappear. Be sure to use 800x600 for the most compatibility too. Jason. james wrote:

I don't use the dash, so it isn't that. I'll try the 800x600. James "Jason Monds" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
