So far i quite like this set..No problems with any game at all,but with one exception.

After switching to Vista a while back i have one issue with F.E.A.R.No matter what driver i use fear runs smoothly for ten minutes or so before the frame rate halfs...then i have to either:

A) Play in slow motion.

0r

B) Restart every ten minutes.

After everything i tried nothing changes.I guese fear don't like windows vista..

But Extraction point & Perseus Mandate run fine..

What mouse do you have?
I unplug/replug my mouse to get the framerate back up.
Works for Fear and EP. Haven't installed PM yet.
