I am running windows 7 and disabled visual theme still flickers on my laptop and when I plug it into my LCD tv but only does it in fullscreen mode, it doesn't do it on my desktop kinda odd. I've read post after post and tried everything I can think of. Not sure what else to change. Thnx for your help though I appreciate it.

Run it in Windows XP compatibility mode.

Disabling visual themes in the Razor/UO compatibility settings will stop the flickering in windowed mode on Windows 7. The actual full screen mode (alt+enter) will still flicker, though.

Is there still no fix for this flashing when running in fullscreen on windows 7?

I have no issues running razor/UO on my Vista desktop. I just got a laptop with windows 7 and get near-constant screen flicker / flashing when playing UO - only when using razor though. If I run UO without razor I don't have the problem at all. But I need razor =P

I have tried all the usual stuff. Disabled aero / theme service, running in Windows XP compatibility mode, running in admin mode.

Halp! I can't stand UO in windowed mode.

Oh wow, it actually doesn't flicker without Razor. Well in that case, you could try decrypting your client with UORice so you don't need Razor. You can then connect to Hybrid by editing your login.cfg instead. I'm not sure if UORice is still being updated though.
