    So guys...I bought F.E.A.R 2 .... and im playing in high settings well because I thought it was an old game and well.... When I was playing my FPS dropped sometimes but I mean its okay..but the thing is sometimes i couldn't move or shoot. Im almost sure that my mouse is not the problem because i can play another shooters like mw2 with no problem...Is there an issue with something about my m11x or i need to change my mouse?

    3 Questions, Whats your mouse, and is it at its fullest driver/firmware update?
    Are you sure the game isn't doing that? Some games have it so in cut scenes or special moments they freeze the users controls.
    Maybe its the touch pad have you noticed your palm going over it or is it disabled when external mouse is connected?

    On the topic of FEAR2, lower your settings a bit and you'll get more frames. It was a sad day when I found out that FEAR 1 and Extraction Point wouldn't run on Windows 7.

    Do you have this happen when you are playing any other game, or is it just in FEAR?

    Does this happen when you are not playing games>?
