Task bar flickers with GPU HD 6970 2GB

Hello,

Has anyone experienced the windows task bar flickering periodically? I just upgraded to the HD 6970 and I never experienced this flicker problem with the nvidia 8800. Starting to regret my upgrade choice away from nvidia.

Just updated my drivers to 11.4 and I"m no longer getting the flicker. I guess the 11.3 version drivers that came with the GPU are not very good. I recommend upgrading to 11.4 if anyone has this video card.

I believe this is a well known issue that only happens at certain resolutions and is indeed a driver problem.
