Flickering, transparent Sims - why, and what to do?

I dunno'-- how about some damn PICTURES so we can know exactly what you mean?
"Flickering or pulsing"-- do you mean flashing blue?
"Their bodies will disappear and then come back, or parts of their costumes will show but not the whole thing." Do you mean their skin tones sometimes disappear just leaving the clothing meshes and textures? Or what? Be extra clear or.... post some DAMN PICTURES!
Sorry my description isn't clear. If I knew how to post pictures, I would. No, there's no flashing blue. The object FLICKERS ON and OFF. That means, one second you see it, the next second you don't, then you see it again, and on and on. NO, their skin tones don't disappear, their OUTFITS do. The head will show but the thing they're wearing DOESN'T. Okay? If this doesn't convey what I'm trying to say, then learn some English.
I know this is maty, but do you have to get so riled? It's obvious no one has a clue as to what the problem is, so settle down and move on to some other post. Jesus. That's what's so great about playing the sims. There are constant problems, and you try to find out the answers to the problems, and you get nothing but motherfucking bullshit responses from some asshole that needs to spew anger.

I was just trying to get better information so I could help you out. You have a "unique" problem and it would be helpful for you to give us as much information as possible. I probably did overreact but I found myself so confused by your description I didn't know where to start.

Here's the deal: I'll learn English if you learn to post pictures to a forum.
My advice is to check to see if your graphics card is indeed overheating by going here and downloading that .exe and reporting back here with your results.

I don't know about unique, it sounds the same sort of problems I had...
Does this look like your problem? Also you might have "holes" in your meshes, only certain ones, like the hood of the parka from seasons, or some of the dresses from the HM pack viewed from a certain angle and things like that?

I do know frustrated you are...that picture is from just shortly after I had gotten my expensive brand new computer. Everything except the sims 2 seemed to run fantastic. I managed to reduce my problem to almost nil (knocking on wood, it was terribly upsetting and I always worry it will return) by updating everything I could find to do with my main board, and my sound, and using windowed mode forever more. I hope this can help you. I don't know why windowed mode helps, I was just relieved that it did.
