    Is this with mouse buttons?
    And with a microsoft intellimouse explorer, using custom programs in the drivers..
    If so. Nuke the custom programs. It'll work fine.. bind things to mouse4 and mouse5

    Dynamic lighting is r_dynamic 0 I believe..
    Try updating your drivers
    Update directx as well

    ok i got thenew dx9b and installedf that, i do seem to rem installing an old game and it demanded i installed dx8.1 or some such earlier version, i jus thought it would auto detect that i had a new version installed but it didnt to the best of my knowledge, let me know what you mean by custom stuff and i will have a look see if i have any of those kinda things installed, and jus for the record, it does it on keyboard also, it also effects my typeing, both things run off USB 2.0 and those drivers are up to date!

    By custom programs he meant those standard intellimouse programs. All you really need are the drivers and nothing else; my intellimouse works perfectly without any custom software.

    If that's not the problem, the only other thing I can think of is to make sure you have the newest intellimouse drivers (windows update should work for that).

    Okay.. what I meant by custom programs is, in the Intellipoint software, you can have the mouse buttons do certain things in certain programs.
    I was using this software to use voicecomm on my mouse, so I would only have to have one button bound.

    If any programs are like this, remove all of the programs, it should make the mouse lag disappear
    If you open the Mouse properties, uncheck the "Enable program-specific button settings"

    Check all the settings inside half life, mainly controller ones.
    Verify that nothing is running in the backround, patch the current windows hole..
    I have something similar if mIRC reconnects.. it is probably a program in the backround
    Are you running Win2k?
