it's called ATI Display Driver... it should be there.... though might as well uninstall that as well...
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

yea its not, i looked like 3 times, i did uninstall the catalyst and reinstalled, the game runs fine after a fresh restart, but after starting the game 2 or 3 different times it starts doing it again

I noticed that on my PC the flickering usually happens when I have a lot of open windows running in the background like firefox etc. Try closing all windows before you start BC.

What resolution do you use ? because I have that newest Kobayashi Maru Beta and there is an option called additional resolutions (wide screen) and when I set 1440x900 res screen flickers from time to time (only hud stays)

i sincerely apologize to anyone watching this thread for the wait, i gave up finding a solution and had just gotten a new job and had forgotten about this thread. if he is still watching this to your question my rez is at a max of  1280/1024. also just a note this doesnt not happen with any other game and my computer is not a game super computer like some of u have, stock from dell. besides not being over powerful( its a zino HD) it does rather well under windows 7 with only 1.8 processing power and a mobility radeon. actually i run most games at a rather high detail level with very few and rare problems. i run into more problems just being under 64 bit than anything else and bc is the only game thats given me the most hassle, most games i have to find work arounds half the time cus they werent designed for 64 bit. another note i have an HD widescreen moniter
