Mouse issues during play???

Fri Mar 21, 2003 2:52 am by senectus

Every now and again the mouse likes to pause while I'm playing..

It only pauses for a second but its enough to wreck gameplay and mostly COMBAT.

Anyone know what I can do to fix this?

This is the only game it happens in.

Mighty be that your system is loading stuff from the hard disk and you're low
on mem.

When my system is heavily loaded with apps and I start freelancer then it
also like to make a pause every now and then to swap thing in and out
of memory.

I don't know your system config but chekc if you're harddisk is running
with DMA enabled and that you have sufficient RAM.

Well ... I am just shooting into the blue here ...

Hi
Reduce your resolutions or applications task, like anti virus/firewall

My machine is a 1.2 gig athlon, 512mb ram, gf2 ultra, win2k sp3

I run a pretty tight system, with bugger all background applications.. I don't need to firewall cause I have a gateway machine do that for the network... I also turn off the anti virus before running any game.

I haven't seen any disk activity when the mouse pauses.. and it DOES seem to be just the mouse.. ( IE, The rest of the game keeps running very smoothly.. there is no graphics lockups or sound juddering.. just the mouse that seems to pause. )

Also it doesn't happen just during combat.. it also happens plnet side (ie when tradeing or mission hunting)

Thanks for your time guys..
