Kuron: I've got to say shut up dude, of course it is the hardware/drivers. How come the timing is fine on a whole bunch of PCs, but not ones with certain Geforce cards then? Also some people have reported that shutting down background tasks stops the jerking. Furthermore some TFTs show stuttering and others don't. Are you experiencing jerking or vertical tearing, do you even know the difference? Some cards show vertical tearing and others don't, how can that NOT be hardware/drivers then? My timing routines don't affect Vsync! I have been researching this stuff every day for around a month now and tried tons of tests on tons of PCs. You are the arrogant one for thinking that your hardware is not the problem, you're in the same boat as millions of other PC users i.e. non-universal-standard hardware meaning developers can't write games that behave the same on all PCs, no matter what timing methods they use, sad but true. However I've been tirelessly trying new techniques to try to improve matters on some systems with various workarounds. I've already worked with Skidracer and others to fix and improve 3 major problems, what have you done except moan? Come back when you have some useful information ...

Red: Glad it worked fine, my timing is based on Happycat's article link. It took a while to figure out but it works very well imho. I look forward to hearing how it works on the other PCs too.
