    when i play games like medal of honor, the screen starts blinking repetitively over and over really fast. and like i thought it was the game and so i uninstalled it and reinstalled it. but it still keeps going that. the screen or the game blinks really fast and i can see my desktop while its going it. i think its my video card settings but i dont know how to fix it.

    well in the game go to options and then video or graphic settings and there should be a switch for VSync.

    What it does is it limits the game from going too fast. The speed that cannot be handled by the monitor. So when you turn on VSync and lets say your monitors refresh rate is around 70Hz, then your game will go no faster than 70 FPS.

    What are your system specifications? (video card, cpu, ect.)

    It can also be another problem, like your monitor
