I read that you have an ati card?..

When you do...try the settings in the catalyst c.center.
Just google for your prob,and you will find that more people have sort of the same problem

Disable the catalsyt AI(because it will give your more bad than good)

And look for your microsaft netframework....I used once winxp manager and registery cleaners...they fuck up your net framework....download it again and run the repair install...

Then with revo uninstaller(or another unistall program)(But NOT with a ATI tool or a Ati driver uninstaller,they are crap)...uninstall your driver...then try the 9.3 catalyst.
I tryed it yesterday...and it works just fine:yes:

Edit:and mayby a fresh install of EB

I have learned that most of the cleaner programs clean"to"much

Let me know if it works

Hmm.... I am not sure I am brave enough to change anything... After all ETW (Empire Total War) works like a charm on my current rig on ultra graphics settings across the board. No lags, no CTD's that other people experience: just smooth riding...

I suspect that flicker radar screen has something to do with back-wards compatibility, RTW is an old game after all...

Yes, it really was the cross-fire. Once I turned it off, flickering radar screen in RTW/EB 1.2 was gone. The crossfire works well (for me) with ETW though.
