Screen flickering Hi I had a similar screen flickering as you describe with DosBox. It started sometimes when the programs switched the screen resolution. It always disappeared as soon as I exited DosBox and returned to Windows. Sometimes flickering started, and sometime not, unpredictable. Since I have reduced the screen frequency in windows (now 60Hz at 1152x864 resolution), it disappeared competely. I assume it was a problem of my Eizo F57 monitor when switching between very different frequencies. My graphic card: Nvidia 8800GTS. Finally, I can live with 60Hz since I use Windows only for launching Dosbox  .Everything else is done by Ubuntu Linux regards Juergen |

| miko123456 | I'm using XP on a Gateway laptop with ATI Radeon Xpress 200M and AMD Turion64. DosBox and Exult are the players and Counter-Strike works fine, however Age of Empires 2 does the same thing as the dos games but only on its menus not the game itself. My soundcard is also broke. Tell me if any more information is needed. | |

Maybe your GPU and / or monitor don't support the games' resolution? Remember most old DOS games use very low resolutions (320x200 and 320x240 are usually the top of it) and refresh rates. |

| RetroGamer | Your post is a little bit unclear. I presume you don't mean "Real" DOS, but DOS emulators. Besides Exult, which other emulators did you try? Some information about your hardware software would be useful for troubleshooting, too. Which OS are you on? Do you have any Windows games installed, and do they show the same effects? | |

Visual problem in all dos games In every dos game there is an incredibly annoying problem. The screen constantly flickers, its like a ghost image of the screen keeps dropping down over and over again. This also happens with Exult, but for some reason the problem will disappear and reappear for no apparent reason. When I first started playing Ultima VII on Exult everything worked fine, but then the flickering started. Any help would be most appreciated. |
