small flickering red lines
« on: November 19, 2019, 08:45:49 AM »
Just curious I recently bought a new computer and loaded Aces High on it while going through all the set up and initial flight I noticed that I had a few flickering red lines on the lower Mid section of the screen. I am currently running windows 10 have a nvidia GeForce 1660 video card. Monitor is currently set at 1920 x 1080

Often flickering lines indicate failing video memory.

Try other games or video benchmark programs to see if that happens with them as well.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

I'd check that the video card was properly seated then I'd ask for a warranty replacement.

Like Bizman wrote - bad memory, but could also be overheated graphics card.

Appreciate all the info. Resolved the issue by reseating the video card. Working just fine now.
