That actually almost makes me laugh out loud at the absurdity of it all, because you're probably right. I probably need to DOWNGRADE them or something! Man, it's sorta funny actually.

Thanks for your help, Bovi. I'll probably just stick with the seizure inducing mini-map.

My HD4870 (same driver as the HD4950, same chipset: the RVX770 IIRC) doesn't yield a flickering minimap on screen. I should note that I have my CCC override the application settings, and that I have (naturally) opted for the highest settings available.
