When I am playing GP3, every now and then the half bottom of the screen "flashes"... It looks like when the on board cameras during real race on TV do have interference. When playing, it starts showing up as early as the car still on the starting grid, ie not using that much of processing.... What should I do to stop this very unpleasant thing? It just becomes impossible to play, as the "flashes" are very very disturbing. I run a pIII 800 mhz, on Windows Me and 3D Prophet II GTS Pro (64mb) video card. Already have drivers for this board version 6.35 isntalled. Help!!!

A known nVidia(GTS Pro) problem. Disabling v-synch seems to be the work-round until new drivers appear. Other games will be affected as well in D3D.

Good one. New drivers THAT WORK, I should have said.

It really makes him suffer. They do have emotions, remember :) -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- People think it must be fun to be a genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.
