COH Screen Flickering

Hi guys,

Is anyone else having this problem? When I load COH and login in, on the character selection screen and while in game, my screen is flickering where for a split second I can see my desktop. I also notice that it says (not responding) for a brief second in the top left hand corner of the game screen too. I am running Windows 7 64-bit and this is the first time I've experienced this. Prior to this morning, this game has run fine with no issues. Any thoughts?

People will inevitably post asking for your dxdiag.exe info and "hijackthis". I suggest you post that.

I will say I d not get flickering showing the desktop, but I do get occasional black frames in populated areas of Praetoria with my GTX 465.
I'm unsure of the cause.

Your "not responding" error with CoH in Windows 7 64 bit is the same I get if I click on CoH while it is loading up. Just don't click to where windows thinks you're trying to hurry it up or being impatient and it likely will never claim it's not responding.

I've got 8GB of system ram, the above GPU and an i3-530 with this system, fyi.

Try disabling Vsync.
I learned just a bit ago that it increases fps in Praetoria and it seems to have solved my flickering issue.
I guess we both figured it out.


Edit:
It will remove the 60 fps limit(or whatever your monitor's refresh rate is) vsync enforces though. That will mean some places will push well beyond 60 fps.
I made a thread asking about a possible way to limit that without re-enabling Vsync. Maybe somebody will have a solution to make this perfect.

Edit 2:
The command /maxfps 60 will set your frame rate limit back to about 60 without having to re-enable Vsync.
That should solve all your issues.
