Sounds about right was just curious if they were set the same for both sets of drivers .. it can sometimes cause flicker if set to low

I think Regen switches the 'Vertical Sync' option in the nV settings to OFF in these drivers. That wreaks havoc in some games as they rely on it.

I have found that if you go into the nV settings, set the Vertical Sync to 'Application Controlled', instead of ON. To get there, all you have to do is: open control panel, go to display, go to settings, go to advanced, go to geforce, and then performance & quality.

A little side note though, if you are overclocking your video card, you may make more problems than what you started with! In most cases, you are going to be just fine. Give it a shot..

so your saying i should turn on my v sync?

Not necessarily turn it on, but rather allow an application to use it, if it needs to.

I believe nV will default the setting to off unless the application otherwise specifies that is needs it on (if it is set to application controlled that is). You have OFF / ON or a checkbox for APPLICATION CONTROLLED.

I have to set mine that way because I have a similiar issue to what you are experiencing with my EA Games (NHL 2000+ and FIFA 2000+). I am overclocking my video card as well, luckily have not seen any issues with vertical sync while remaining overclocked at all, though I have heard cases.
