Thanks, I should have realized that. I'm so bloody frustrated with this that I saw "player help" and ran for it.
Today I got a new computer and downloaded CoH but I'm having problems getting the game to load. About 3/4's of the way through the loading I start to get heavy screen flickers. The log in screen will appear and I can enter my user name and password, select my server and character, but the entire time I'm getting screen flickers (appx every 3-5 seconds). When the zone loading screen appears it only gets about 1/5 of the way on the loading taskbar before crashing. The entire time I'm getting flickers, even seeing the loading screen graphic again. It takes over 5 mins from the time the zone screen appears till the program shuts down. I've tried verifying files, safe mode and running under Windows XP compatibility. I know it's a tech support question and I've submitted a ticket but thought maybe someone here might have some suggestions.
The computer is running Windows 7, graphics card is an ATI Radeon 5850 and I have 4 gigs RAM.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
