So, I've updated my drivers, and I did 2 fixes I found on the forum; turning off hardware acceleration with Microsoft DirectX SDK, and the fix with Microsoft Compatability Application. They worked for the other games, but IWD2 still has frequent cursor flickering. Does anyone know a fix, and why IWD2 is the only one with issues now?

Thanks for the reply, but it didn't work for me. To clarify, it didn't remove the flickering, just helped with it. Now it's less common and more blinky than the actual icons flickering in random parts, but the flickering is still there. Tried both modes for BG2 and IWD2.

hey, i just spent an hour playing around with different settings, and the solution i found was:
right click on desktop
settings
advanced
troubleshoot
turn the hardware acceleration down

try each 'notch' and then play the game, i had to turn it down 3 notches to work

hope this helps
