Help - Flickering lines across my monitor in DW!
G'day guys,
Hope you can help - I've just noticed that, when I'm playing DW, that the outside environment (sky and underwater) has faint flickering horizontal lines across the monitor - a bit like TVs did in the 80s! The panel screens (sonar, periscope, etc.) seem to be fine. It's just the outside environment - and only in DW. I tried to take a screenshot - but the screenshot comes out crystal clear. It's weird, because the monitor is only a few years old...it's a cheapie (AOC 2470W1E at 1920x1080) but it does (did?) the job. Thanks fellas - any advice appreciated! Stew

Also my refresh rate can only be set to 60Hz and ModeID is 3...
Seems better now, after restarting the computer, not sure what the problem is/was... Edit: it came back again after I'd minimized DW to watch some Twitch, and then maximized it again...

Thanks Alcon,
It seems to be ok if I don't 'minimise' the game so much. It might be a thing because it's such an old game? I was wondering whether it wouldn't happen on an LCD monitor - just deciding whether should I treat myself. Thanks for your help - really appreciate it! Stew
