Default Problem with Nvidia Board

What version of Vista?
nVidia does have beta drivers for both RC1 and RC2 (separate downloads).
What kind of monitor? LCD or CRT?
If LCD what is the native resolution?

This is no help to you but you're not alone.
When I run the windows photo gallery viewer in full screen, or the Photos
screensaver I get the flickering too (but not always). I haven't (yet) seen
the flicker in media center but I don't use it much.

The version 96.85 drivers for Vista claim:

# These drivers are only compatible with Windows Vista RC2
build 5744 and higher, and should not be used with other
versions of Windows Vista.

Found at: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_96.85.html

This should include RTM build 6000. Did you try them?

Yes, I have tried with that drivers, 96.85 and got same problem. The problem
appers when I running the Media Center in full screen. It works in smaller
screen.

Any idea ?
