Yesterday I basically wiped out my whole computer while installing a new GTX 760 in my machine (bios update on mobo required, wrecked windows w/ that update). Anyway, now that everything is up and running smoothly I've noticed MWO starts flickering between the point where a match is found and the game goes to full screen and the time where the inital level load splash screen appears.

Honestly this isn't really causing me a problem per se because it appears the game is still running fine on very high settings. It just makes my screen flick like every other frame is black, and every other frame is the desktop then it makes it into the game and all is well. Just wanted to add a heads up in case this issue starts cropping up with anyone else using an nvidia 700 series graphics card.

Side note I have my old GTX 295 and a second monitor hooked up to that one, vista x64 ultimate, 8GB ram, phenom II 955BE on a sabertooth 990fx and of course the GTX 760. Latest drivers for everything installed of course.

could you try the game in windowed mode and disable v-sync when you are on windowed mode?

My SSD died recently, and I decided to install a fresh OS on a spare disk.
I am getting the same issue.
I have a GTX660Ti
As I said, fresh install of Win7 x64
