yea so my nvidia control panel told me there was a new driver update so i download it and install etc.. but now whenever i play on dx8 my game flashes white like the textures arent rendering or something though there no purple and black but when i switch to dx9 it works perfectly fine and i know alot of people will say play on dx9 but its pretty much unplayable on dx9 for me

you can still run it in dx9 with chris's maxframes config, just change it in the launch options. player models will look shiney but in a weird way because the quality will still be low, but you should be able to keep high fps and not have flickering http://clugu.com/tf2mate/
