MSFS 2020. Dual display screen flicker on main display

Post by bill721 »

FS2020 on main display and other flight tracking type programs on second display.
If I use mouse on second display and then come back to main display I get a flicker. If I just barely move my head I get a small flicker. If I move my head I get a large flicker or realignment on the main screen. If I don't use Trackir no flicker at all.

I have used this set up for years on other machines and never had this issue.

Any ideas on a fix????

Thanks
Bill

Same problem here, tried rolling back driver version but still get very annoying fullscreen flickering. Only disabling gsync fixes the problem but that introduces stutters and input lag when using vsync or introduces tearing when not using vsync, so that’s suboptimal. Problem exists in DirectX 11 and 12.

I get fullscreen flickering constantly in flight and when navigating through the menus. It’s almost like the game halts for a second after clicking an option and during that second I get fullscreen flickering.

Hello arrestoccupy,

Do you also use a dual screen system, as bill721 did? Are you able to upload a video of the behavior to Youtube and share it here? Do you have this issue with any other games or simulators?

Kind Regards,
