WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Greetings, I have just built a new system recently and reinstalled lock-On with FC and the latest patchs. First here are my Graphic specs 8800 GTX OC x 2 but not using nhancer for SLi with this game yet so the game is only using one card as far as I know. Driver Version : Forceware 97.94 I also have a 22" widescreen that I was using @ 1680 x 1050 but changed it to 1024 x 768 just in case, but still the same problem. Anways, this is what is happening to explain in a little more detail. Every Mirror, and also the Optical display in the SU25T are contastly flashing when im in game. If I goto external view the cockpit Glass and also the Glass on the KAB 500`s are also flashing. It`s kind of hard to take a screen shot of it. But ive managed to snap two of them with it flashing. heres a screen shot of only the opitcal system. The flash rate is very fast. http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/9854/screenshot003se4.jpg If anyone can help me in any way I would appreciate it. regards WooDe

WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Author Posted April 16, 2007 No Sir, Notthing at all just installed, and patched it up to currently version
Shaman Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Could be the 8800 thing. There's one guy in our squadron called (504)X-man, who uses same GPU. Maybe he could help you sort this out. 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer
WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Author Posted April 16, 2007 Thanks for all your help guys, Im still adjusting settings in the game, Ive noticed when I adjust my settings up higher and higher, the flashing gets faster, and when the settings are down its slower.
X-man Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Well, I have a single 8800GTX but I dont have your problem :huh: and not a solution either :( 64th Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 135.181.115.54
WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Author Posted April 16, 2007 Mmmm. This is not good. I love LOMAC and I even bought it again so i wouldnt have to wait up to a week to get more activations too. What drivers are you using ?
WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Author Posted April 16, 2007 Just and update on the matter, I have totally uninstalled the newly released drivers with drivercleaner in safe mode and installed extreme G `s newest XP 32bit driver. Now the problem is gone! Driver related Error Thanks all for your time and help with this situation. Kind regards WooDe
DimASS Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 there are special drivers for 8800(vesion 100.xxxxx) 97 are not for 8800 i guess [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
WooDe Posted April 16, 2007 Author Posted April 16, 2007 According to Nivdias driver download page I had the correct drivers for the 8800 Series for the Win XP platform. I have Vista Ultimate 64bit but quickly reinstalled XP when drivers and issues with older games with DX 10. Oh and not to mention all the popups the damn OS puts infront of you. Its just those drivers didnt work great with my card this time round. I also lost my SLi capabilites too with the Extreme G drivers so i could play lockon. But I dont have any Sims that Tax one of the cards so it really doesnt matter. This was the driver version I was using from the nvidia site Windows XP Windows XP Media Center Edition ForceWare Release 95 Version: 97.94 Release Date: April 5, 2007 I have noticed a Big improvement with performance/Quality with FSX, Silent Hunter Wolves of the pacific, Lock-on. These 8800 line of cards need alot of driver work still i gather.
