Default Re: Flickering in fullscreen

I have never seen this, even running at 1080i on a wide screen monitor (in XP of course)

Have you tried
- running in GDI mode instead of direct X?
- running in windowed mode at desktop resolution?
- Turning sound off (if currently on)?.

Also - ensure that your video card drivers are up to date, and that you have no other programmes competing with the game for memory, or the screen.

Cheers
Andy

I would suspect your video card drivers, you dont mention the card but it may well not support 1680X1050 resolution genericaly so its working harder to emulate it & if the drivers are not up to date triping up.
Select screen resolution for your descktop & see if its in the list to see if your graphic card supports it as a native resolution.

On a side note surely full screen at that res gives you a distorted view as its stretched to fit your monitor why not play in windowed mode so the game displays correctly?

I can't play windowed at desktop resolution, because winSP doesn'T know how to handle to desktops with different resolutions in this case.

But, yes, 1680x1050 is native, for monitor and video card. Speaking of:

GeForce GTS 450
Drivers 275.33
Dedicated V-RAM 1 GB

And I can't even select something other than GDI for fullscreen?

I didn't notice any distortions on my quick look, but the only windowed resolution that works (due to the 2 monitor setup) is some odd 1124 something.
