First off, my first post here, I have wound up on these forums dozens of times through google searches now I am finally posting.
I have an approx 3 year old Alienware M17x with two GTX260m vid cards.
Drivers are 257.38. Direct X 11 is installed.
That is the latest I can get from Dell and downloading the latest (310.something?) compatible driver from nVidia, it won't install. The cards are running in "hybrid SLI." Quad core 2.0ghz processor.
The issue I am having is not just textures but EVERYTHING flickers, 2d and 3d cockpits, outside world ground/sky/cloud/structure textures. Everything flickers. At night it is worse and everything has a blue hue to it when it flickers (night in sim time that is).
From searching these forums I have played with my settings in game, set up buffer pools in fsx.cfg to 850mb, installed and set up the external FPS limiter and set the game to unlimited, and ran the bojote fsx.cfg tweak and saved that one and again made sure buffer pools was still on. The problem still persists.
I am a helicopter pilot in real life and love FSX but I just cant deal with the flickers anymore!!!
Any and all help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance
