hi there...
got a problem. my friend installed morrowind just today on his pc and if hes playin it he gets a mouse delay. so... if you move the mouse, the mouse cursor moves some seconds later...
that makes the game unplayable and not very attractive.
so - does someone know y this could be happening?
thanks

wow your machine is twice as fast as mine and I'm not having any problems! How Ironic. Anyway some suggestions & questions:

What dimensions are you running it in? 1024x768 or higher might be taxing to your comp

What video card are you using?

What kind of driver are you using?

1024 x 768

Gforce ti 4200 128 mb ddr

even if i play @ 800 x 600 or 640 x400 the mouse got the same delay...

What operating system? All drivers up-to-date? Have the latest patch? Are the sliders for AI and View distance all the way up? Real-time shadows turned on? Does he have any background programs like anti-virus running (they don't get along with Morrowind)?

Do you mean you have no other open programs running? When my comp is messin up my games I usually shut down the non essential files. Press ctrl+alt+del and shut down everything that is not related to System or your Internet connection, also don't shut down explorer.
