Title: mouse and keyboard delay during gaming PLEASE HELP
Post by: dutch.koen on January 26, 2011, 01:00:28 PM
Hi all,

i have a very annoying problem with my mouse and keyboard: i bought the game 'far cry 2'. but when in-game, my mouse and keyboard react very slow. if i press, for instance, the W button to walk forward, the game reacts like 1 second after i pressed the W button. my keyboard and mouse are connected via USB connection. this is what i tried to solve the problem:

- i updated the graphic card driver
- i made sure the V-Sync function is disabled. (both in the Catalist Control Center and in the game, i disabled this function)
- i made sure the function in my configuration window: improve the precision of the mouse, is disabled.
- i tried to use an other USB portal to connect my keyboard and mouse

these are my PC specs:

- computer: HP g5245nl
- operating system: Windows 7 (64 bit)
- processor: AMD Athlon ii X4 635 (2.9 Ghz quad core)
- graphic card: ATI Radeon HD 5450
- i don't know which motherboard i have (if you need to know that, please tell me how i can find it without opening my computer)
- 4 GB of RAM
- 1 TB of hdd

like you can see, my computer should handle far cry 2 easily. but even on the lowest settings, i have the problem, although it is like 0.5 seconds delay then. other games i play (without any problems what so ever) are:
Call Of Duty 4, counter strike: source, MotorM4X offroad Extreme and Call Of Duty 2. of course these are not as demanding games as Far Cry 2, but like i said, i have no problems with these games what so ever.

if you can help me, please try to explain to me what i should do. my computer is just 3 weeks old, so i don't want to do anything witch makes me lose my guarantee.

edit: i have this problem ONLY during gaming.

thanks, koen

dutch.koen, CH is glad to have you.

Your problem just might be specific to the AND quad and that game.
Have you already tried the AMD game forum?
