Hello again everyone,

I'm an avid player of Blizzard's World of Warcraft,
which is combined with ATI's RADEON X1900XT.
When I play the screen gets blotchy and flashes in random areas onscreen.

(I believe this is called screen tearing)

I see a large grid of squares on different parts of the page, [flashing] for a second then going away. The video is just not right. I go into WoW's Video Settings and turn the V-Sync off but that doesnt change anything.

What is wrong & what can I do to fix this problem??

[[NOTE: This has been happening since installation of the program/game.]]

I'm going to try and get some screens of the problems but I am away from home at the moment. Will attempt to post screens Sunday evening(9/3/06)(EasternStandardTime~GMT -5 Hrs)

Thanks, --Jordan

try updating the drivers. That might help. Is the card overclocked?
