Post subject: | Warcraft 3 screen flickering |
Ok, So yesterday I installed windows 7 ultimate, Updates all my drives, then go play warcraft 3. The only probeblem is that every 30-300 seconds, the screen flickers, from half way down. It just flickers 3 quarters white and the rest black. I have tried to reinstall wc3. Update all drives. Edit compatability for all options on wc3.exe. Played with screen resolution and refresh rate. Im raging about it not working. I also thought it was my bios Spoiler:

1. Type in cmd box, "dxdiag" make sure all sort of display accelarations are enabled. 2. Make a shortcut on the wa3.exe file and add the argument -opengl. This will disable direct x. 3. Try window mode, same as above just add the argument -window. 4. If your driver is Nvidia. Open the Nvidia control panel and select the manage 3D tab. There you can select war3 and assign its graphics. 5. Use a program to edit warcraft 3 like awc http://files.wc3edit.net/download/index ... _setup.exe 6. Try to edit warcraft 3 through with a trick to increase FPS http://www.playdota.com/forums/234776/i ... ames-free/ |

It's a known blizzard problem. Also happens with SC1 when using windows 7. Try running it in windows xp (virtual environment). |

Or is this just running in compatability mode? Windowed & opengl have no probeblem ( i think). Normal opengl does NXDIAG, It says nothing is wrong The probeblem has stopped ( I think.. But it might come back. If i does i will post in this. Thnx. (more help than windows 7 forum -............-) Ok Update: Now i get no flickers, but colour problems. Caught on screenshot Spoiler:

I dont think reinstall will work for you. Try putting everything back to defaults not by reinstalling but with tools like AWC cause those settings are stored into the registry. |

Everything back to default = flicker. No -opengl extention = flicker. -opengl extention= colour problems. -d3d Extention = flicker..... -......- |
