    I tried it with the latest and older drivers. I even tried with no drivers. The problem was there all the time.

    I really won't be able to get a ati card. Is there nothing else i could try? Oh yes wanted to say it's a new pc. Also i have no problems what so ever in games, which i find very strange.
