crysis gun menu lag

[bossgatekeeper]

when i press the c key to bring up the gun menu it pauses and the mouse icon apears, 5 seconds later the menu appears.
again when i press the c key to drop the menu it lags.
this also happened at a lan when pressing the p key to enter the buy menu.
i never had the problem with the gun menu, i didnt know it laged until just recently.
i had got a no cd crack of a friend for the lan this may of caused the problem, so i trieded a reintall leaving game saves.
should i try a complete game reinstall?
thanks for the help

what specs do u have, what settings are u on? it could just be normal lagg from an FPS drop.

 

[bossgatekeeper]

i normaly run on high with no aa so i dropped it to med and low both with the same problem

 

[tallguy1618]

what are you specs?

 

[bossgatekeeper]

Q6600
Leadtek 8800GT
3.5 gb kingston DDR2 800
Gigabyte GA-P35-DSL3 MOBO

it runs fine on high with a 22" monitor but as soon as i press c ore escape it just sits there for a few seconds and then does its thing
on the CPU display on the G15 is shows a spike after it unfreezes from pressing the c key
like i said it never did this before

It must be the no-cd crack then. I've never seen your particular problem before, but I have heard of alot of weird problems with Crysis when using a no-cd crack. Try getting rid of that and see what happens. Also, have you patched the game yet? If the problem isn't from the no-cd crack, patching might help (i doubt Crytek will make a patch to solve a problem from a no-cd crack lol)

 

[bossgatekeeper]

haha yeah
i uninstalled but kept game save so ill try a full unistall and reinstall
i never patched the game coz i never wonted to play online i have a patch though just never used it
but from what i can see it was running fine before the no cd crack

 

[tallguy1618]

okay then go ahead and try it out without the cd crack and patch it and then come back and report if u still have a problem

 

[bossgatekeeper]

iv got a crysis patch 1.2 is that the latest patch?

 

[stemnin]

1.21

 

[bossgatekeeper]

ok so i unistalled and made new file and reinstalled
still same prob so i patched and then tried again and still the same problem

Hey ive had this SAME EXACT problem these past couple of dayss. I still havent resolved it :[.

 

[Bamny]

!!! I just figued out that its the G15 Keyboard. Did you update the driver recently???? I unplugged it and plugged in a different keyboard and it worked PERFECT like b4!!! Hope they come out with a new driver soon :\

hey i have the EXACT same problem with the g15 but you dont have to use another keyboard you just need to go into the logitec g15 menu and disable the extra functions of the g15 that worked for a while with me......then it all started again
