Joe_D,

I just read that chat session.  

Unfortunately I did not see any mention of FS2004 issues there.  I may have missed them... it was hard reading  ;).

Hopefully that release will address the "Flicker".

Think it will give us higher FPS?

I believe it when I see it...  

And higher FPS, don't think so, it is just to resolve issues, not necessarily an improvement on the drivers itself, I think.

Unfortunately, that second message says the 9700 and 9800 series of Raedon cards.  I am using the 9600 pro.

HOPEFULLY that is fixed too.

Yeah, I noticed that too.  But they use the same drivers so hopefully they will also affect the cards we have.  I'm using a 9500 Pro and am having the same problem with flickering.

Is the flickering really THAT bad?  It doesnt bother me one bit.  In no way does it affect the playability of the sim.

I can see how one would find it annoying.  I on the other hand, don't even realize it's happening anymore.  LOL

Silver,

If you try to use the kneeboard much...... THeN it gets annoying.

That has kept me away from the webbrowser modification for the kneeboard for now.
