Hi. Why? - SPOOK0999 - 07-16-2008
Hi im SPOOK Today i i have been trying to pay penumbra overture episode 1 (It is not the demo it is the full version) Well i have been having some really bad mouse lag. but what dose not make sence is that when i move around without moving the mouse it wont lag at all. and when i move the mouse it stops for as long as im moving the mouse. But another thing that dont make since is when pick up an object and move it around the screen and area (Using mouse) It wont lag. THIS DONT MAKE SENCE! lol

Hello, SPOOK0999!
Have you tried with a different mouse?
Or installing the mouse drivers again..?
RE: Hi. Why? - SPOOK0999 - 07-16-2008
Well no not yet, ive been trying to find an old mouse to try but until then, no i havent tried the driver thing i dont even think there is drivers for my mouse.
Edit: I tried a wireless mouse It did not improve it.

It might be a graphics driver issue or perhaps some setting? Try uninstalling driver restarting computer, and then installing the latest one you can find.
This will make sure you have the latest driver and set any setttings to default.

I know i have the latest driver. I have recently updated a couple of weeks ago to be exact.

I would still advice uninstalling, restarting and installing again as this will make sure you have no strange settings.

Don't use wireless mice as they add extra lag
RE: Hi. Why? - Thaliur - 07-18-2008
A too high polling rate for your mouse can cause lags as it clogs up your system bus with "I moved two milliinches to the left and one milliinch upward"-messages from your mouse, especially when you move it quite fast.
