Shadows are messed up in all PC games

Question

Hi, I've been having this weird shadowing issue the last couple weeks. My drivers are all up to date and I can't figure out why the shadows look messed up in all of my games.

Dark Souls (Shadows on the upper back) - http://i.imgur.com/4X0G3T5.jpg

I'm hoping someone can tell me how to fix this or if this is normal or whatever and I just never noticed before. But it's been driving me crazy the last 2 weeks or so. Thanks.

Answer

It's called shadow striping. There are mods for Skyrim that fix the problem, I have the problem in ME3 as well. So far I have found no fix for it and have tried many tweaks including some that work for skyrim but so far no luck. I don't get this problem in any other UE3 Engine games so not sure what is causing it. Have you modified the game in any way?
