This is the strangest problem i've ever had in my many years of gaming, and i've never seen it happen prior to now, so I ask that you post anything that even might assist with the issue.
While playing resource-intensive games (BF2, GR:AW, COD2, but not in FEAR :\), basically, my keyboard and mouse inputs, well, lag!
Example : I press the keys for forward, then right, then prone, and then I click to shoot (sometimes simultaneously, sometimes not), and my character will just keep running forward for a bit, my system speaker will start beeping like i'm holding down five keys at once, and my character will proceed to unload his entire clip of ammo into the wall that I just rammed into.
I've ruled out the keyboard and mouse themselves, and it's not my i-net connection (my latest ping in BF2, where this problem started, was 9ms, and it happens in SP games too). Plus, as far as i've seen, it hasn't happened a single time while not gaming. It does happen in the server select screen sometimes though, while i'm trying to type something into one of the filters.
I've tried raising/lowering memory/cpu/graphics card voltages and plugging/unplugging internal and external devices to possibly rule out my PSU (420w TTake, better part of four years old), but the problem seems sporadic enough that I think it may very well be my PSU anyways. My only other thought is either my motherboard getting ready to retire, or possibly my CPU being too slow for my RAM and VCard to keep up, both of which I upgraded since this problem manifested itself.
Anyways, system specs are in my sig, and again, any help at all will make my day, err night
Thanks in advance.
