Hi,
You may be right, certainly not a virus.
If I were you, I would clean-up the registry and defragment the hard disk.
There are two very good tools I usually recommend which are free but they are for us 32 bit majority.
Please look at the download system.
Regards

Hello,
Vista has no relation with game lags, so reinstalling it would serve no purpose. Do you have this lag with all games or just the one you are talking about?

and one more thing that might help....i have 2 user accounts, on the other account it works perfectly, no problem...so it won't be a hardware problem or general OS problem, must be a conflicting software, right?

A lot you say! It's abolutely gigantic! Your hard disk was a bunch of dried-up bread crumbs.
And how is your system performing now!

Yes I know! If you have never defragmented that the consequence. It take a very long time but you will see a world of difference in greater performance.
Insure the machine does not go to sleep from boredom, also avoid using it, it will speed the process.
Now is the time to read Tolstoy's War and Peace, watch a rerun of "Gone with the Wind", knit a pair of slippers, take a trek on top Mount Kenya.
I am anxious to get the results. If you used Defraggler, you will be able to see a report showing the files which were not defragmented, but that may not be until next year, 2011.
Carry-on laughing and if we do not contact before midnight, I wish you the very best.
Signing out till later.
Regards

That will definitely be handy then. Does it make more space on the C: drive aswell?
I have ensured it does not sleep unless i make it, which ofcourse i won't do.
Haha, agreed. yeah im using Defraggler, hopefully it'll complete by perhaps the 2nd. I'll be sure to fill you in on what happened, and if it helped with the jamming error. The driving game, when i connected the controller, it worked perfectly. 1 minute before connecting the controller, without a restart, it was jamming as usual. The controller and other accounts eliminate the problem. It must be with the keyboard..i don't find the mouse to have he same problems.
Thanks, i wish you the best aswell. Take care, hope to hear from you again soon, friend.

You are welcome
Sometimes you must run defrag several times to get them all. I suggest you do because you may get into trouble again very soon as your processor will keep running around like a chicken with its head cut off, looking for files. You can also try with your Vista defragmentor situated in your control panel

Defragmenting only put things where they belong, with the sister files. Sometimes computer take long because they get one file and they must look for the other at the other end of the disk.
See if this defragmentor will work on your system:

This registry cleaner may also work
https://ccm.net/download/download-13339-eusing-free-registry-cleaner
But begin with the cleaner.

If you have never defragmented before, it's about time you did.
