Hello, I hope someone here at this extremely knowledgeable forum has dealt with this problem I am having that is probably the worst I have ever seen. I have a weird video effect that manifests itself into many of my computer games, completely ruining them and rendering them unplayable. The affected games off the top of my head include: Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Full Spectrum Warrior, Brothers in Arms, World of Warcraft, Knights of the Old Republic, Call of Duty, and Far Cry, although some are worse than others.
The symptoms go like this. I will begin playing a game, and after a minute or two of being in-game, spots begin to appear rapidly for a split second all over the screen, then soon after, lines begin to appear between objects that are in the game like trees, houses, what have you in the color of the objects that make it so that I cannot see anything past these obstructions that change with the movements of my mouse.
It?s hard to explain, so I made this site in order to show you some of the pictures I took while playing Far Cry today.

Any ideas would be much appreciated, because this is a serious waste considering that I paid for these games and am unable to enjoy them.
I am running:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 2.0GHz processor
MSI K8N Neo Platinum Motherboard with onboard soundcard
Radeon 9800 Pro
WD 120 Gb hard drive with < 50% used disk space
And my whole system is less than a year old, with a very cool running environment.
Thank you.
