I got a new computer recently. Yes, it's a Dell - please don't give me too much grief... Anyway, at first I was only running Final Fantasy XI and it worked great, but after a couple of days, textures started flickering in and out rapidly. I also installed Doom 3 and 3DMark05 - both have the same problem. Now the flickering is constant. I aslo checked the temperature and after 20 minutes of flickering Doom 3, the temp was at about 71, which from what I gather shouldn't be a problem.
Dell Support was totally unable to help me out. There aren't any problems with viewing Windows itself, so they think it isn't a hardware issue - but I suspect otherwise. Any ideas?
The system is:
3.4 GHz Pentium 4
1 G RAM
256 MB Nvidia Geforce 6800 GTO (running 67.66 Forceware, or whatever the new beta is...)
What else is important...
I've got Directx 9.0c
