I apologize for the cross post. I had originally posted this in the games section, but I think it makes more sense in the GPU section.
------------------
Just for the fun of it I thought I’d try out the dual monitor option in Supreme Commander. The main screen works fine, but the second screen flickers badly. It almost looks like the refresh rate is wrong..
The second screen works fine in windows (XP32)
Note, I’m running crossfire, with both monitors connected to the same card.
Thanks,
J

ive had a similar problem with screen flickering on my dual 22" 1680x1050 conected to a hd4870. the second screen would flicker whenever i scrolled with the mouse wheel on word or a web browser. reinstalling the graphics drivers seemed to have fixed my problem. hope this helps out!
After reinstalling, and navigating through the obnoxious SupComm patch process, and checking different resolutions as I go, I've discovered the following:
1. The second screen flickers regardless of the resolution combination I use on either screen.
2. The second screen flickers regardless of the version number I try
Anyone any ideas?
