A hardware fix would prolly be the best. I did the registry fix you mentioned Aaron, it had minnimal effect. I still had flashing only on certain broadcasts. That was a motivation for me to rebuild both of my systems. I haven’t seen any flahsing and much less judder with the A4-3400. That is a very very good CPU/GPU (or APU) for a dedicated HTPC that isn’t going to be used for any hi powered computer work.
