black flashes

Postby gottoflynow » Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:05 pm

I recently bought a new video card (Nvidia GeForce FX5500) and since then every once in a while the screen will turn black for a second then go back to normal. It seems to happen when i look around or switch views. Any help is great.

Seems a driver issue to me. Try to download a newer driver from Nvidia.

Yes, definitely a driver issue. I had the same problem, called NVidia; They knew exactly what I was talking about and directed me to the newest driver.
