Vista - Mouse Lag in vista games but not xp

Hi, i have mouse lag problem but ONLY when i'm playing games and ONLY when i'm using Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Under windows xp i have no mouse lag at all :\
Now i have installed windows xp sp3, vista ultimate x64 and seven, all the 3 OS with latest driver for mouse and VGA.
My mouse is a logitech G5, my video card ati 4850 and my motherboard abit ip35.

I tryed really everything.. but always without success
What i can do?

Have you tried another mouse? Is your mouse wireless?

my mouse is a logitech G5 (non cordless) and in a normal situation it have no lag
for normal i mean "everything outside a 3d game"
and, i repeat, in windows xp i don't have any lag

thank you for reply

If by latest mouse driver you mean Setpoint 4.70, maybe uninstall it and try an older version,

Download SetPoint 4.40 - FileHippo.com

Give the 4.40 a try. Haven't been following it up much lately but if you check out the Logitech forums quite a few people had issues with the 4.70 when it came out.

ok i just tryed both 4.40 and 4.70 (before i was using 4.60.122, and i have to download them from other site because i have 64bit vista) but..
nothing changes
still lag in 3d games..
can't be a video card issue?

Is your video card fairly new? You may try turning down the video settings and see if it helps. Are you playing an online game?

What does non cordless mean? Try a wired mouse.

~Lordbob

yes, my video card is new, a radeon hd4850 (trust me, it's a great card).
I'm playing an online game called "osu" osu! - rhythm is just a click away
"non cordless" means that it's wired, this is the mouse:


Osu is a rhythm game and mouse lag makes it unplayable

Thank you again

Interesting. It could be the lag from the internet here. Are you hooked up hardwire or wirelessly?

And next time just say wired mouse.

~Lordbob

can't be a lag problem.. mouse lags even in the main menu.. even if i'm totally offline
i'm hooked up hardwire (ethernet cable directly to the router)

ok

Lol. Interesting problem...

Does it still lag with another mouse? This is important because if it doesn't, then your mouse has a problem.
