    I haven't read any of the posts but I've seen quite a few, search the forums for 6400 screen flickering.

    Had the same problem, also happens after playing a video through WM or Nero show Time

    Download and install updated BIOS first (top one) then install latest video driver.


    Be warned the BIOS flash is brand new and has i beleive caused me some further issues with Wireless however so far fixed by rolling back the weireless to an older version.
