Hi guys - good to see you're still doing well. I have a question that will tax your technical minds. I just built a new computer and I was really excited to be able to play Halo with all the settings turned up. Well, that didn't exactly happen (but I'm okay with that).
The problem I'm having comes when I'm moving around a lot in game - strafing moving back and forth, etc. The problem is that while I'm moving, when I go to change direction, I don't change direction immediately - I just 'drift' on my original path and then after about .2 to .4 seconds, My direction change goes through.
Now I usually ping at or below 100 on the server, and I didn't have this problem with my old box. I have a 3800 AM2 X2, 2x512 MB DDR2 in a Dual Channel config, a 6600GT (PCIe) and a Wireless mouse and keyboard (Logitech). The problem seems to get better as I turn down my graphics, but I've got them pretty low right now (low enough for me not to be happy) and the problem still pops up - just not as often and not as noticeable.
If anybody has had this problem, please let me know what you did to fix / help it. I know you guys aren't tech support here (more than anyone else), but I'm calling in a favor. Thanks.
