2006 Premier Flickers

[Jan Groshan]

I just installed 2006 Premier. It looks like it's going to be a great
program, but when I hover over a "split", or the paperclip to add an
attachment, or try to view the "what's new in 2006" screen everything
"flickers" for several seconds before it is readable/usable. I tried
rebooting, but still have the problem. Any ideas?

What release are you running? After I applied the R3 update, I noticed that
periodically windows will flash, and when the flashing stops, data fields
are empty. (This typically happens in Portfolio View, but it has happened
on the other Investing Center tabs, too.) If I click over to another tab
and then click back, the window displays normally. When this happens, if I
exit Quicken and restart it, the problem goes away. I wouldn't say what
I've observed is "flickering," but just thought I'd share my experience. If
you are not at R3, I would definitely install the update. This is the only
problem that I've observed, and it's rare.

Regards,

Margaret

I am running R3. Maybe R4 will correct the problem.....but I'd sure like to
correct it NOW. It's really annoying !

Not knowing your system specs; OS, ram, update status, ..., it is very hard
to diagnose anything. But a few basic things to check: up date your OS
updates/patches, check for a video driver update (this can cause problems
with programs), is your ram reliable and seated well this goes for the
video card also. Another thing is your monitor, although you would notice
symptoms in other programs, how old is it? Have you installed any new
hardware/software recently?

Maybe this will get you started.

My system is a 6 month old Dell Dimension 8400 Pentium 4 630 with HT (3 GHz,
800FSB) running Microsoft Windows XP Professional. I have 1 GB dual channel
DDR2 SDRam at 400 MHz, 128 MB PCI express video card, and a 160 GB hard
drive. The monitor is a 17" Dell flat panel. I'm configured to automatically
update whatever/whenever. I only have the problem in Quicken Premier 6,
which is the only recently installed software....and it started happening
immediately.
