Normally, I wouldn't mind having 333FPS on a game.

Yes, that's three hundred thirty three frames per second, not a typo.


The problem is that it doesn't detect my mouse movements.

I only just noticed, but it also looks like my sound isn't working at all. (Speaker's cable was unplugged )

Any help?

My computer used to work just fine with CC, so it's not one of those 'computers that just hates CC'

Did you uh, reset your settings.ini? Change your control scheme to mouse + keyboard, then if that doesn't work, stop the game, delete base.rte/settings.ini (make sure to save your key somewhere) and then restart the game.

Nope, didn't do anything to settings.ini

Still doesn't work properly.

I checked my backup vanilla copy, it's equally broken.

Did you get a new mouse? Plug any new devices in? Try moving around which port things are plugged in to.

Update drivers?

I'm using the same mouse as always.
I've got all my drivers updated, as usual.

I tried pulling out all the USB stuff and swapping them around randomly.
No changes.

I also tried making the deltatime 0.166667. That sorta fixed the mouse problem, but now it displays at 6 FPS (though it still claims to be giving me 333.)

Oh yeah, I use a Core 2 Duo at 3.16GHz and a NVidia GeForce 9800 GT.

The dual core timing patch?

If by that, you mean the link to:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx

...then there wasn't a patch available to me. I followed the stuff through "intel core 2 duo desktop processor" and "windows XP home edition" and the only thing available was the processor identification utility.

Microsoft made one:

I run XP SP3, and that fix is for SP2. I keep my computer up to date, and there aren't any available updates from MS update.
