I thought it's time this deserved its own thread.
I've searched and can't find anyone with the same problem, which I find hard to believe.
Sometimes when my fps is around 15-20, my controls freeze.
If I'm walking forward and firing, I will continue walking and firing even tho I let go of both mouse and keyboard.
It only usually lasts a second at most, but when I was just fighting a big daddy elite bouncer, my controls kept locking for 4-5 seconds at a time.. totally unplayable and frustrating.
I have a freshly installed Vista with ALL drivers downloaded and up to date..
Only thing that works when controls are locked is my mouse movement.

PC Specifications:
Vista ultimate
Athlon 3700+ single core 2.2ghz
2gb ram
NVidia Geforce 8800 GTS 320mb superclocked edition
x-fi fatality sound card
retail box version

(I also have crackling sound with both my X-FI and my onboard AC-97 while the other is disabled)
Should this go in the main stickied thread? just its 125 pages and I doubt it will be seen there.
