Flickering only in Torque programs with this card..

I have a couple of video cards that I've been playing with, both are GeForce 5700fx 256. One of them flickers and one of them doesn't. I thought it was kind of weird so I put it here.

It always flickers when I start the PC up and load any Torque prog, but sometimes it stops and sometimes not. Just wondering if anyone has had this problem with this series card and wondering what the problem is.

I have more cards that I've tried and have narrowed it down to these two for comparisons. It's not a big deal but I would like to fix the problem if anyone knows what it could be.

Have you tested more then one version of the drivers? and you using the nvidia drivers or manufacture supplied?

@Ramen...yes, the latest Nvidia drivers are installed, 1.79 I do believe and yes have tried more than one version. I have thought many times that the card flickering is going bad but it only does it with Torque related prog's and it eventually stops whenever it decides to. I don't have a clue as to why it only does it with Torque, I guess the card flickering has a couple of different shaders or is actually going out and it only shows up in Torque....dunno...
