Screen Flickers when mouse moves. HELP!!!

sup everyone,

i have this problem with the game. i bought it a couple days ago so it's brand new. whenever i move the mouse pointer, the screen flickers. i don't know what the problem is, because i have games like oblivion that run perfectly because i have a really nice computer. dungeon siege 2 is really the first game to run with a problem.

anyways, i won't list everything, but my video card is a eVGA 7950 GX2

so please post any suggestions that you might have

thanks

PC too new...!?

Actually that is a known driver problem - at least for newer ATi cards.

Try to update your graphic card driver nethertheless, matters with Geforce cards aren't generally unknown specially when SLI related.

Maybe try reference drivers, instead of what came with card. If those are the ones your using...

actually, i think i have the most updated drivers, so i doubt that that's a problem, but i'll try reinstalling them.

do you guys know of any other ways to fix it, or do i have to try and return the game?

thanks in advance

I know you said you have latest drivers, but, are you using latest drivers from eVGA? or from Nvidia? I know in some games/cards/hardware combinations, the difference between manufacturers drivers and the chipset makers reference drivers can be significant.

Are you running windowed or fullscreen? I have experienced that type of mouse behavior in other games that I have run windowed. Also, what resolution are you running game at? Maybe lowering it (or raising) might help...

Glad it works I figured you had an eVGA driver and not an Nvidia.. but, there are times too when manufacturers drivers work better than the reference.

Good that it worked out..cause DS/DS2-BW are imo some of the best games ever made.
