V-Sync Enabled, But Still Tearing

[Squall Leonhart]

im using the same drivers on the 630 and 275 and both support dynamic vsync

its off in both and theres no tearing in pcsx2 with dwm enabled.

[Squall Leonhart]

hmm, can't seem to put the drivers settings in any state which causes this.

Didn't realize before but I've already tested the 304 drivers. Did not solve this issue.

Same here, as well. =/

[Squall Leonhart]

what else are you guys running in the background

because anything with a overlay, or hooks the process for information could be causing problems.

Alright, it seems turning Aero on fixes the problem. I'd been using the "Windows Classic" desktop theme previously, but I switched to an Aero theme and the screen-tearing went away.

Ah. I will have to try that then too. I use classic, too.

;P Kind of made me lols, you said you have dwm enabled at the beginning of this thread /classic theme disables it @_@...

[hyperionxl]

I was able to enable DWM in classic in services. It said started and I set it to automatically start with Windows. Restarted and stayed enabled with Classic.

I did not know Aero was necessary for it to work properly.

As the older plugins are able to work without this, I still would like to see a solution for classic users, as Aero is a terrible resource hog, and I have to disable it for many other programs to work without issues.

Hmm, DWM is the desktop window manager, but it seems the compositor is only enabled with aero
