Extreme mouse lag, v-sync didnt help

Postby blackite » Mon Sep 17, 2012 5:48 am

Hi, im having problems playing this game on my hp laptop. The mouse movement is really laggy and makes the game unplayable. I searched this forum, and it seemed most other people was able to solve the problem by turning on v-sync at all times, however that did not fix the problem for me. My laptop is decent and can run almost any game fine. The specs are windows 7 64bit, 8gb ram, i7 2.4ghz and radeon hd 6770M. If anyone can help me solve my problem, i would appreciate it very much ^^

Not sure if this would help anyone else, but I too have mouse lag when playing on windows 7. Playing in linux mint, however, there is no lag at all. There is, however, crashing. So there's that...

Same issue here, I have been able to make 1 play through to sector 7 before dying. But it took 2 days almost 12 hours each to do it.

I get the same issue, mouse skips all over the place. It's making the game unplayable for me, I tried disabled v-sync but no change. Hopefully we can get this resolved soon.

The Radeon HD 6XXXM line seems to have this problem more than any other. For the three or four others who experienced it, a full uninstall and reinstall of the most updated drivers fixed it for them. If you need help doing that, here are some links from AMD:

Uninstall: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pa ... ivers.aspx

Reinstall (Windows XP): http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pa ... verXP.aspx

Reinstall (Windows Vista): http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pa ... verWV.aspx

Reinstall (Windows 7): http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pa ... dows7.aspx

@Zas,

It worked. Thank you for taking the time to post links to something I should have been able to look up myself.

I'm glad this worked, and I'm glad that this game is so amazing.
