Strange white flashes
« on: January 11, 2010, 08:04:10 PM »
I flew a little while today,and I ran into something I've never seen before.Every once in awhile a got a real bright white flash that lasted for just a second.I think it was when I took a look into the sun,as that has always been real bright,but I'm not sure.I just downloaded the latest driver for my two Nvidia 250's running in SLI.That was my first suspicion,so I changed from letting the application decide what my cards run at,to my settings,set for good graphics.I flew a little more,and I still had the flashes.I think I will roll back the driver,and see how that works.The only other changes I made to my puter,was that I plugged a couple of 8Gig flash drives into usb as Ready Boost to see if I could generate any noticeable improvements.Any thoughts,ideas,etc.?Thanks in advance.

Hrmm...  are you sure you aren't being transported to a different place IN TIME every time one of these flashes occur?  Is your nose bleeding?

I figured it out.....A updater was running annd it probably was the culprit.Shut it down in processes,and bingo no more flashes.
