Whenever I run Quake 3 Arena (along with my ATI Nexus Rage 128 card), I get weird distortions or "skewing" in the textures/screen whenever moving forward. (It's a bit difficult to describe. It makes moving difficult because the skewing flickers showing the reverse angle when moving forward, making it impossible to play at certain times.) The same thing happens when playing Rogue Spear.

I have the latest OpenGL, ATI, and Game Sprocket drivers - I haven't been able to remove this problem by reverting to older ATI or OpenGL drivers.

Can anyone help?
