I found this little tid-bit of information a couple of weeks ago at Tweek Guides. Seems to have helped some in my gaming.


If you have a lot of extra hard drive space, you can increase the size of your Pagefile which acts as Virtual Memory for high resource applications that drain your system. With a lot of background processes running on your OS, sometimes your system runs out of memory when you run complex 3D games and causes nasty CTD's. This can be sorted with a Pagefile increase, which also helps your comp to run smoother and better. Here's how to do it:

1)Start Menu>Control Panel>System (This is using Windows Classic View instead of Category View)
2)Go to the Advanced tab and click the Settings button under Performance
3)Click the Advanced tab in the new window and click the Change button at the bottom
4)Before you increase or decrease your Pagefile/Virtual Memory you must first clear it. Opposite the Set button is an option labelled No Paging File. Click it and Click Set.
5)Restart your computer and follow steps 1-3 as described above.
6)Now that you've cleared your Pagefile and restarted, you can specifiy an amount of hard drive space to be set aside and used as Virtual Memory. Click Custom Size and in the Initial Size (MB) box enter the minimum, in Megabytes you would like to assign. For reference mine is 5000.
7)Now set a value in the Maximum Size (MB) box, again in Megabytes. For reference mine is 10000.
8)Now click Set, Ok, Ok, Apply and Ok and restart your comp once more for the changes to take effect.

By doing this, you will have set the minimum amount of Virtual Memory to 5000MB or 5GB, and the maximum to 10000MB or 10GB. You can of course use more or less, depending on the size of your hard drive amongst other things. I recommend uninstalling and deleting any software and/or files that you don't want/need, cleaning the registry and defragging your HD along with this process to free up HD space and minimise loading times in general. There are a number of guides available online detailing how to optimise and get the most out of your hardware. I highly recommend the TweakGuides Tweaking Companion available at the link below.

If you only occasionally start getting it all of a sudden, then minimize your game to the taskbar, wait a few sec (best let your system calm down), then maximize it again. Fixed.

At least works for me. Don't know if that was the fix you were talking about, but it fixes it for me.

If the mouse is always laggy, then your gfx settings are too high. Turn environmental effects off for starters or reduce gfx quality in your gfx card settings outside the game.

Turning on V-Sync in the Options helped me if you haven't tried it already
