baldur's gate/icewind dale graphics problem

kmansp

I recently gave icewind dale another go, and to my surprise i noticed that I am getting a lot of flickering and the mouse flickers as well. I tried baldur's gate 2, and sure enough the same thing. I took it off opengl mode and sure enough this solved the problem. But I want the games to work with opengl!! I currently have the latest omega driver version for my ati mobility 9600/9700. I don't want to have to go back to the original drivers. Is there anyone out there that is running Baldur's gate 2 or Icewind dale 1 with 3d enabled and omega's latest drivers?

I really want to figure this one out. It's bugging the hell out of me. If anyone has any tips other than getting rid of omega's drivers, I'd sure appreciate it!! The actual game works fine without flickering. It's just the borders and the mouse that flicker in both games, but it's very annoying.

Edit: I found a slight workaround: if I play either game in windowed mode, it won't flicker. What is the cause of this? I can live with windowed mode, but now I want to figure out why it WON'T flicker in windowed mode with 3d enabled?
