Default So, what's the cure against flickering shadows (ATi)

Title pretty much sums it up, have a HD6850 and I've been fiddling around with both in-game and CCC settings but the flickering remains. Does anybody know the magic setting combination?

ShadowMapSize=5

I also have it. Are only Ati cards affected by this?

wind blows through the trees making the leaves rustle, branches and boughs sway... shadows react accordingly.
The wind effect isn't a realistic one though, unless viewed from very close up - ie on the ground
I'm thinking also that AA is applied to the trees, making them shimmer
