Sounds like a driver issue. Downlod the latest ATI drivers, COMPLETELY remove all old drivers, reboot. At this point you may want to use a driver cleaner,and then install the new ones. The ATI website also has a nice step by step procedure you can follow for this. You probably already know this, but I figured I'd get it out of the way in case you didn't.

download and install the app. Go to add/remove programs, click on ATI uninstall utility, remove, reboot, use driver cleaner app, and then install cat6.9.

Not necesarily a driver issue. If you want to push AF to the max (and I'm not even pondering the possibility of you using AAA and HQAF along with AFx16), be prepared to see some flickering issue on certain textures and certain games.

It's easy to fix the flickering, disable HQAF (if used), and then drop AF down to x8. Games will still look good enough. I have yet to see the real visual benefit of HQAF.

The flickering issue has been around for a long time on ATi cards in some games, and it's just down to textures and how AF code tackles it.

Disable everything, and then see if it's still there. If not, enable one at a time, and see where the issue comes in. Otherwise, uninstall cat, driver cleaner pro, reinstall the latest drivers (6.9)

What's the temp on ur gcard? I know my dad's 1600xt does the same, but it's due to heat on the card seeing that it's a silent heat pipe card, so the memory runs hot after awhile.
