Video Warping on Wc3

After playing Diablo II I am unable to play Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos or The Frozen Throne. The reason is because after playing D2 the video on WC3 Starts flickering and shows black irregular horizontal lines. A restart is the only way to get rid of the problem. It's quite a hassel for me to have to restart everytime in order to avoid the video problems with WC3. Anyone know what is causing this or how to stop it?
 
Only thing I can think of is:

Do you have the latest patches for both games installed? Also, have you visited Blizzard's Tech Support section? You might try sending them an e-mail, too.
 
It might be something wrong with the disc. Or it might be something wrong with your computer/whatever plays the video... Just some possibilities. :eek:
 
I haven't sent this problem to Blizzard yet. So I'll do so. But I do have Diablo II, and both Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne fully up to date. Also my video drivers are also up to date. But I'll give the word to Blizzard. Maybe they'll be some help for once lol.
 
Hmm well Blizzard just gave me the typical automated response crap. Did you have all drivers updated? Did you have the latest patch? Blah blah etc. So they're no help on this problem I guess.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
