Screen blanking for 1-2 seconds when playing Flash VIdeos

In working hard to get VDI off the ground, I'm having trouble with playing Adobe Flash videos.  The VM is XPSP3, IE8, Flash 11.1 running in View5 on a Dell FX100 with 3.5.0 firmware.  Tried reinstalling VMTools, View Agents (both 4.6 and 5), Flash player.  Also veriied the issue occurs flaying flash in Firefox.  I did see how View added an IE add-on, but had the same issue with it disabled.  Also tried with and without flash throttling, still no luck.  Issue does not appear to happen in win7 on IE9.

All the flash accelartion stuff has nothing to do with PCoIP, that's an RDP setting.  Can you try connecting with a View Client (from a Windows box) and see if you get the same issue.  Also, are you doing dual monitor on the FX100?

This issue does not occur when using the software view client on a desktop. This is with a single monitor. I also tried hard coding different amounts of video ram for the VM and that didn’t make a difference.
