4850 Flickering problem (with video)

Hi guys, wonder if any of you can help. In an attempt to get rid of shimmering on FSX (seems its a common ATI problem with that game, but I wouldnt back down:D) I fiddled a little too much with settings or something in ATITraytools and all games that I try and play have these horrendous flickering textures. Up close to objects in game, the texture appears perfectly. However it gets increasingly worse with distance with textures extremely fuzzy/grainy/shimmery/flickery, and any linear features on the textures flicker too. Trees and grass seem to be the worst, I cant actually play ARMA2 because its just one big fuzz!:p

Ive tried defaulting everything in ATITraytools, to no avail.

Is my GPU buggered?

Ive tried to show this on a quick fraps video, it hasnt come out great but you can kinda get the idea.

With the exception of FSX, all games have worked fine in the past.

My system:
Intel E7200 3.2ghz
2GB Ram
PowerColour ATI 4850 512mb

Cheers
 
Uninstall atitray tools. Uninstall drivers (clean properly using driversweeper), and then reinstall drivers.
 
did you fix this because my 4850 video playback still sucks and i have reinstalled the whole machine so many times and nothing makes a difference...
