I just downloaded 24.8.1 via the Adrenaline screen.
Fixed the blinking of screen for me.

Runs great in FS2020.

Landed at Newark, NJ (KEWR) with 20.4 GB VRAM used.

I’ll have to check this later to see if they fixed the system crashing bug any time I start a game. It’s been in the last two driver versions, but someone on the AMD forums found a workaround in the meantime in case it isn’t fixed. For now I’ve had to uninstall MSI Afterburner (not that I used it anyway) and turn off enhanced sync.
