Age of Empires III display problem

I'm having a problem with AOE 3 and display. Here is my system information
ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
2gb ram
XFX 7800 GT 256mb PCI-Express video card
AMD 4400+ X2 Dual Core processor
2x 250gb SATA3gb configured as Raid0
Samsung 21.3" LCD monitor (1600x1200 @60hz native)

Minimum is meet to play the game. When I run the game I've had the title
screen lock up, another time it was supposed to go to the main screen but
went black and I could hear the music playing still (had to power off PC).
But mainly when I do get into the game and I'm sitting at the main screen I
see tearing/flickering. I've got the latest NVidia drivers. I've altered
settings for the graphics but it's always there.

Any ideas?
