Graphics hard lockups driving me INSANE

PLEASE, for the love of god, help. This has been going on for years now, and it's really, really frustrating.

Symptom: Random graphics lockups, in which my screen will cycle between two frames and sound is fragmented in sync with the cycling.

The only way to fix it is to alt-tab. It SEEMS to me that my AMD 5870 is running out of memory... If I uncheck Load Textures on Demand the lockups happen almost instantly.

I've tried every damned combination of video settings I can think of. Has anyone run into this and found a solution?

My topic, about my problems.

Sounds like yours too.

+100% for being "racist retard". You rather be safe racist in your country, than dead French bundle of sticks under the truck wheels, blown to pieces by a bomb, or shot in your own country, by so called "refugees". Lewak logic. Youll all die, sooner or later :). Enemy of my enemy, is my friend. Muslims will deal with you, go use the power of crayons do defend yourself.

Memory problem with warband engine most likely. I had the exact same problem, and running in dx7 solved it for me (not very pretty, but it's not THAT bad).
