Try both 16 as 32 (actually 24)-bit Z-buffer.
Next to that, I can't think of anything. It's quite odd.

Looks like a good ole' graphics card bug. Check your drivers, Or if you can't be bothered to do that, buy a new Pc.

Yeah sounds like you've got a really crappy... uh hardware there. Probably got bugged. You should take it back, but they'll probably not do anything about it.

Hey, if you pay shipping I'd give you $50 for it though.

I'd pay 40├é┬ú. Thats about 70 Us dollers :O

And I'd pay shipping.

unpl;ug one of your vid cards. it might be crossfire thats messing it up. you shouldve gone with either SLI or waited until Crossfire matured a little and became more stable

n/m i fixed it.. but it looks crappy at 1024 shadows

i geuss there was a small driver update and then i played around with my settings, and it works at 1024, but at 2048 i still get that ugly shadow box thing

Indeed. That processor is craptastic. You are lucky to have so many people who are willing to trade it for money. If i had a pc that bad, I'd probeblty have to pay someone else to have it.
