Is the problem only there when you enter the game?

Hmmm...I'm not a gamer so I don't know if this will work or not...but try booting into Safe Mode and try running the game from there. You'll be stuck using a real low color depth and resolution, but when you go back into normal Windows the setting for the game visuals might change so that you can at least what's going on.

What catalyst drivers are you running? I reccommend *at least* 4.6
