I can get into Continuum without any problems, but for some reason the bottom 4/5 of my screen flashes from black to the game over and over. It's like I have one frame and then a black screen, at least 10 times per second. This makes it virtually impossible to play. I've never heard any kind of problem like this before, anyone got any suggestions?

Sounds like another program running in the background screwing it up. Make sure nothing is "blinking" down there, like ICQ or something (the networking icons fine). Also, anything video player may screw with it, such as Media Player, Quicktime, RealPlayer, etc.

See if you close/disable those programs, if your problems go away.

I had that problem on one of my comps. I solved it with one of the options in the main menu.

Do you remember how? Someone told me something about refresh rate... can't seem to find anything about it.

I forget which option it was, but I figured it out by just changing an option, testing it, and changing the next one. Im pretty sure it was in the advanced option section, but i'm not sure.
