I know this is an old issue, but I assumed it was resolved at this point or maybe pointing to another issue.

It seems that since moving to Vista 64, whatever ATI GPU I use, the screen would intermittently start to blink. When I used a GTX260, I had no such problem.

I have used 2 different 3870s, a 4850 and now a 4870.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm sure this is more than a driver issue. Should I just go back to Nvidia?
 
Follow up.....Do anyone know if this happens in Win 7?
 
I have never seen it happen with any ATI card in Vista or Windows 7. There might be something else going on with your rig since it does it with multiple cards.
 
I doubt it's my rig because I have tried with 3 different boards, one brand new bought last week and like I said before, when I installed an Nvidia card, the problem disappeared
 
What is your motherboard? I know this seems unrelated, but have you updated your BIOS?
 
I have a brand new Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R that I bought less than 2 weeks ago. I doubt that is the issue as I had the same issue with an older board
