You need to go into your video settings and turn off V-SYNC. The best way to get to it is to right click on the desktop> properties> settings> advanced, you should see a ATI tab. Click on that and just start going through going through that options till you see a setting relating to V-SYNC. If you still can't find it then go to ATIs website or look through the help files. Just got done dealing with that issue myself on my FX board.
