Trying to play games on my PC and I get flashing bars across my screen. What can i do to stop this?
I am trying to play Americas Army 3 and when I start the game, I get a graphics glitch. It displays horizontal bars across my screen that flash. I still hear the game audio. The same thing happened a while ago when I tried to play Empire: Total War. I have updated my graphics card, which is a Nvidia 7900 GT. I have an AMD 5400 Processor. According to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com, I exceed the recommended requirements for both games. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Here are the results of the system test for Americas Army:
