graphical stretching?

[iviv]

For a while now, I've had a problem with weird stretching in graphics. But since it only happened in Civ 4, and rarely, I just ignored it. But I've started noticing it in Trackmania as well, so I'm getting a little worried as to if it could be a problem with my card or something.

I captured a fraps video of it in Trackmania, and its here, and if I see a problem in civ again, I'll post that as well. Not seen problems in any other games though, including far more graphically demanding games.

Grabbing a screenshot from it, that thing that's stretching along the top half of the screen is supposed to be that barriar. Just for some reason its stretching off to who knows where. I replayed the same track today and it was fine, but a different track that was previously fine now has a similar problem :/

Also, in the vid its not their straight away. It's fine untill about 4:20 (race time) then it just appears.

oh i thought that was just some fancy bridge/ad banner
it is odd that its intermitant, would kinda suggest overheating, but that would be more persistant.

Full driver (un/re)install?
