Hey guys... Emergency. 9-1-1

Well, not really

Something really discouraging is happening when I shoot, though. I am in Joystick Flycam mode and when I leave local lights on and move the joystick around, facelights, and really any kind of light source starts to just blink like crazy everytime i move the camera. It's like a lightbulb shutting on and off, on and off. It makes me completely unable to work in local lights mode with my joystick.

Anybody have a solution?

lol.. you becoming a drama queen of the silver screen now?

Its a problem with current nVidia drivers, try using older versions.

Also reduce the amount of texture memory in preferences, graphics, hardware settings.

Wow thanks guys! hmm, I have 64-bit though.

So drama queen of the silver screen (haha) has one other question.. my frame rates tend to suck when i'm filming at the highest settings sometimes (like 9 to 14! but then they hop to 25.. but still very unstable). Will increasing my memory .. right now i have 2 gigs, to say 4 or 5 gigs help my frame rates? A lot of times when i try to use joystick flycam- it like hops around-- and is jerky and kinda stops than all of a sudden moves really fast with jerky motions.. things like that..
