call of duty 4....making me ill ???

Hi after upgrading my graphics card I now feel travel sick when playing cod4..I have a 24 " monitor .I cant work out if its a mouse issue a setting issue or what.I find playing on a lowere resolution is a bit better but spoils the looks of the game.When i stand still and turn things seem a bit jerky.Got head ache and nausea from playing for 20 mins.Any ideas.

Re: call of duty 4....making me ill ???

So just to clarify what you said, game play seems jerky? Is it jerky when you are standing still looking at one point, or does it only jerk when you are turning? If its the latter, it may just be a case of low fps while turning. I understand you have the 9800GX2, but from what I've read, that card hasn't been performing as it should in some cases.

I get over 125 fps constant so its not that.It seems jerky when i turn from side to side .Mouse sensitivity perhaps ??

Also, is this multiplayer or single player? You may just be looking at some lag issues.

tend to play cod4 now and then, smaller screen and do vary the servers, but never had that, sick of getting pwned at the wrong moment for sure is not fun

I have the same feeling when I play CoD4. I barely got though training before I felt like throwing up.

However I'm not having any problems with video card or lag issues. The game in general just makes me feel sick to my stomach.

It's called motion sickness.

Some people are just not used to the fast paced action in FPS games. Easily gives them a headache or something.
