    Recently returned after some short time off but now when I log into the game, the screen just constantly flickers, making it unplayable for me. I have tried messing with various settings but nothing has worked for me. I have about 400 hours of gameplay, so I have never had an issue before. Anyone have any suggestions? Here are my specs.

    OS: Windows 10
    Processor: Intel i5 4570 3.2ghz
    Memory: 12GB
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4600

    We had this issue with one of our computers out of the blue, just started one day. Had to stay in Windowed mode to make it playable. What we found that fixed it was that computer had to turn on (click the checkbox on) for Sync Refresh under the main EQ2 menu-options-display-performance. When the checkmark was in that box that flickering stopped.

    Good luck, I hope this helps.

    There was an update for the 4600 last month according to Intel's support. Perhaps you need to update OR if you have, you may need to rollback to the previous version?

    Thank you both for your responses. It is very much appreciated. The Sync Refresh worked and I'm good to go. Thanks again!

    I am so glad this helped you and you are playable again.

    Enjoy your journey in Norrath and have fun.
