i guess i'll post this here since i only get the glitch in certain games. every few seconds certain parts of my screen will flash checkered with about half-inch black or red or green boxes, mostly black. it usually only covers about 25% of the screen at a time and seems to be in random places.
radeon 9800xt
directx 9.0c
1 gig of (i think) corsair
athlon64 on a chaintech zenith mobo
i've only noticed it in WC3, WoW, and a little bit in CS:S. i've had this setup run fine for almost a year but just recently this started. the only things i changed were that i installed ventrilo and fraps (note: i still get the error if both of those programs are closed). i've tried switching monitors, 3 different drivers including ones that i previously used with no problem. i tried reformatting but i didn't test a game out with a clean format, i installed vent/fraps/random [censored] before any games i could test it out on, i was so sure a format would fix it that i didn't bother. any help appreciated
