I don't know any game that does not recommend shutting down all other aplications before running that game!

And that is what I am suggesting, if you want me to help solve your problem.

If that works then if you wish, you can slowly restore them one at a time and see were the problem lies. It may be one or more individually, or some of them together that cause the problem.

However all those TSRs slow down your performace in all aspects of your computing and are really not nec.
 
TSR's certainly aren't necessary. Playing games on a computer isn't necessary. Those TSRs are, however, convenient, and, the vast majority of current games don't have problems with TSRs.

Regardless, I went through and closed everything down, and sure enough the flicker disappeared.

If I take the trouble to figure out which program is conflicting, is there a snowball's chance you or someone else at Paradox will go and attempt a fix?

In the name of accuracy, games tell you to turn off all applications during installation - in fact every piece of software I own does that. However, none of them are so bold as to recommend complete shutdown of every other application during normal use.
 
We use all feedback to improve the game!
However the fault may not lie with the game.

Lot's of games I have played DO reccomend shuting down ALL TSRs when playing, Lots even require it.
 
Sorry for not posting on this issue for a while. I have just rebuilt my system with a new mobo, cpu, G card and I no longer experience this problem.

I think the root of the problem does lie in what is running in the background. When stopped a few processors I found the game ran fine. It was mainly my mobile phone syncing software that was causing the problem.

Hope this helps someone.
 
Thanks for letting us know!
Glad you are back in bussiness.
