I downloaded the program.  But when I play, all the text displayed on the
table keeps blinking on and off.  Is someone else having this problem?

Works perfectly here.

Suggest you check for updated video drivers from your video card mfr/pc mfr
websites.

I am having the same issue.  But it happens after a while of playing.  Almost
as if there was a memory leak.  The letters start blinking on and off
slowly.. and it starts to increase with time.

Are you using Nvidia graphic cards?  Their drivers are known to have this
problem with Texas hold'em (and a lot of other issues as well......)

I've had the same blinking problem which makes it impossible to play. So far
the chess game seems ok. I havn't played the other games yet.
I have an Intel dual core 6600 CPU OC to 3.15, 4gig Ram( 3 is reconized by
this 32 bit Vista Ultimate), vid card is Evga 8800 GTX & MOBO is AsusP5W DH
Deluxe. I think I have the most current drivers. I'm not much of a game
player because I hate learning the various keyboard commands & am waiting for
a better way to be developed; I will probably have a long wait.
Hopefully Microsoft can offer a solution or patch to fix this if they find
it's a softward glitch.

Thanks everybody for replying.  I guess the culprit is the nVidia video
driver.  I have the new 8800 GTS and it seems I am not the only one to have
this problem.  Let's hope nVidia will release an updated driver soon.

Thanks again.

Unfortunately, even this driver doesn't fix the flashing text problem.

I noticed. I fiund the driver, and it totaly screwed things up. The driver
crashed all the time.

At last!

Reporting that Hold 'Em is now working on my Nvidia 8800GTS 640MB with the
latest drivers from Nvidia (April 17th)

"158.18_forceware_winvista_64bit_english"

Enjoy Hold 'Em without the flicker, at last!

I've also noticed that Dreamscene Preview is now also rock steady.
