not sure where to put this one, so i put here.
Question: do Freelancer and Starlancer use D3D? I have been having problems with both of them as of late ( Screen flickering, strange bars and lines going up/ down my screen like an old TV set). I suspect D3D because in Counterstrike 1.6, it lets you choose between Software, D3D, or OpenGL and when I choose OpenGL or Software, it works fine, but when D3D is selected, it does what I have decribed above.
I swear, this computer will be the death of me...
