    So, I have a Gateway Laptop. 6860FX. Its got Vista 64, 4 GBs of RAM, and a 8800GTS. In other words, it should run the game flawlessly.

    But I can't get the mouse to work in the game! :crash:

    It works fine on the in-game menus, but once the actual game starts, I can't use it to look around like you do in a normal FPS.

    Have you patched the game to v. 1.4? That fixed the no visibility fog issue on my laptop, 10 minutes before it completely died.

    A lot of the issues are fixed with those patches, one being the one you`re experiencing and the other being a blue screen all over, instead of game images :)

    Did the patch kill your laptop?
