Try a driver version from when it was working.

Select your OS and card from here.
Ati clicky. (http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.HTML)

Then select Previous Drivers and Software at the bottom of the list.

This should confirm or eliminate the graphics driver as the source of the problem.

Have you added any other hardware recently?

uninstall your gfx drivers
update direct x (9 or 10)
install latest drivers

that should sort it :y
