soo..
Whenever I got winamp running while i'm playing CK, the screen is flashing
and it's so f***ing annoying!
Any help?

shut down winamp!

But seriously, if winamp is on screen having any visualisations it *should* by all logics flash.
If you minimize it or diable any visualisations it has, you should be able to run game well.

Or use iTunes or WMP, neither of them flash the screen.

Are you 100% sure it is Win amp and not another program, I know Eartlier versions of win amp did not cause a problem.
You don't happen to have Music Match installed do you?

i think it is because the mp3 player (winamp) and CK use different frequency, thus your monitor flashes black from time to time. it is nothing serious, but if it annoys you, you could try and lock the frequency of your monitor (i'm not sure if you could do it with standard windows options, but you sure can with progs like powerstrip).

Well you should be able to solve that by settig your desktop to the same res as the game.
