    Start menu -> Run -> type "dxdiag" w/o quotes -> if a box pops up with Ok as an option, click it (it may not if you've already run this before) -> the screen that then pops up with your system information will list the direct X version at the very bottom

    DirectX 11. My graphics card doesn't support it. That the problem?
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    I'm not positive, but that would certainly be worth investigating. Try rolling back to DX10.

    I might need a touch of help with how to do that.

    After reading a bit more, it appears that DirectX 11 is supposed to be backwards compatibile for everything, and apparently Windows 7 automatically installs it anyway. So, I'm not sure whether that would solve your problem or whether you'd be able to remove it even if you wanted to. Since it's happening on multiple games though, it definitely sounds like some kind of driver issue. I would recommend browsing ATI forums for driver problems with those games and/or Windows 7.
