Midtown Madness 2 - Flickering Screen - Windows 7

Postby BloodyThunderX » Thu Mar 05, 2015 10:28 pm

I recently installed Windows 7 onto my PC (This initially came with 8, but as MM2 is nigh on unplayable on 8, it was well worth making the switch to 7. Downgrade my ass. ;) ) , but cannot seem to rid of an issue where the screen flickers several times. Though not making the game unplayable, it is annoying to see often and no matter what I have done, I can't seem to fix it.

I've already applied these so far;

- XP Compatibility Patch
- Speedboot
- XP Service Pack 3 Compatibility
- Run as Administrator

And yet I still can't solve the issue. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

Unless I used the wrong version, this caused the performance of my game to drop, and caused graphical glitches not present before.
