It may be settings. I have that same card. I had to play with the drivers(I now have the newest) and all of the settings(in and out of the game) before the flickering in the sims 2 stopped and the ground in Fallout 3 stopped looking like poorly textured mud. No really, the ground looked higher then it was, so the character looked as if they were running through thigh high mud. Spore also gave me problems on the creature stage, in that instance, I had old drivers and then improperly uninstalled them so the issue continued. Which is what happens when when I am annoyed that my game is not functioning at 3 in the am. Now my games are lovely. Currently I'm using 8.5.

It is most likely the drivers, yes.  My ATI card was working fine* since I got this computer last spring.  Then the 9.x drivers came out. I upgraded., and immediately started up Sims 2.  Entire buildings would disappear momentarily and then return.  I downgraded back to the 8.5 drivers, and the problem was solved.


*Except the problem with triangle-shaped holes appearing in the chests of women wearing certain form-fitting clothes, or women who are naked.  This is why I immediately started up the game after I upgraded the drivers; I wanted to see if that was fixed. It wasn't.  Oh well.
