Upgraded to Vista: flashing graphic images

So I upgraded to Vista Premium on my AMD 5000 dual core w/ GeForce 7950 GT graphics card.
Using latest release of NVIDIA graphics drivers.

FS X didn't work at all so I uninstalled and re-installed.

When I fly, my screen flashes, and I only see a brief image for a fraction of a second, maybe once a second or two. Even when I set graphics to LOW I still get this same behavior.
Totally worthless.

Boy do I wish I hadn't upgraded to Vista...

Any ideas to help? Is there a FS X patch or service pack available?

Thanks!

There will be SP1 for both very soon but for now turn down the AA settings in your video cards control panel and see if that helps.
Try a different resolution also, lower one.

If you have an NVIDIA card make the AA 2X and the AF 16X.

A 9600Pro on Vista. That's an old card. I'm sure it's having a difficult time rendering graphics.
What are your other system specs.
