Default Problems with video card

I've got a problem with AA settings. When I set it to x4 or x6 I see black pixels in 3d view. I've updated the drivers etc. nothing changed. I got Radeon x1950xtx, 2 gigs or ram and AMD 64fx 2.4 GHZ. If any one of you know how to trouble shoot it please let me know.

Updating-installing new drivers may not eliminate your video issue.
With Ati-Catalyst drivers I have always uninstalled then run a driver-removal utility prior to reinstalling or 'updating' the Ati-Catalyst for better results.

Where can I get the driver-removal utility from? BTW would that AA issue be due to me using larger monitor? I got 24 inch screen. To be honest the game looks bad at low res setting and I have no idea how to ramp it up.

It's a horrible thought but maybe the card is breaking down, you could install ATI Tray Tools & try reducing the GPU & Mem speed. I have an HIS X1950 pro card but it can't be overclocked! also have 2gig memory & AMD 64 3800+ with AA set to 6x, have no problems.
