A multisync monitor isn't a flicker fixer on its own. Its advantage is that it can show TV freq (15kHz) signals, and VGA (30kHz+) signals.

So if you throw an interlaced mode at it, it's still going to flicker. But the advantage is, normal (S)VGA monitors can't view these modes, so you can't play old games on them without a scandoubler.

Try DblPAL, Productivity and Euro modes. The monitor drivers should be on your workbench disks or in SYS:Storage/Monitors. Just drag them to SYS:Devs/Monitors, reboot, and select one of the new modes for workbench.

Flicker fixers always come with scandoublers - thats how they work. Search for "Scandoubler with flickerfixer". They aren't cheap.

And by the way it'll change the image if its scandoubled - it won't look the same on your monitor. And it's not perfect - when things move sideways you see a little distortion.
