9800 pro problems w/call of duty

[SummaDis]

This problem came out of nowhere. It was all working good then one day I started having this problem.
I am getting blocks on the outter edge of trees.
I can see dots through walls outlining buildings and other objects in the distance.
I have installed latest drivers.
I have tried older drivers.
Reinstalled directX9.0b
Actually went to the extreme of reinstalling winXP.
I am trying to avoid the thought of it being my card is fried.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Card overclocked ever? sounds like artifacts... sort of...

 

[SummaDis]

never overclocked.
I thinkI can get rid of the tree blocks if I mess with the settings.
But the "dots" wont go away. Its like at a certain distance It happens. Wierd.....
I also had a problem with medal of honor.
The floor in certain spots on maps turned into checker boards...but only in certain spots.

Have you tried installing the Call of Duty patch for ATI Radeon cards 9500 or higher? I'm not sure if it specifically addresses the problems you're experiencing but you can try it and download it from here: ATI COD patch

Patch shouldn't be needed with newest drivers already part of the driver.

Do you get the artifacts in Windows and CoD or just CoD?

 

[SummaDis]

just COD..
no problems with windows or anythign else.

I just installed that patch..no change.
I did however bring the textures in my video card options down to performance instead of quality and the blocks on the trees went away, but I still see the "dots" through walls. Hmmm.
