Hi, when playing some games I find with mymovementbuttons I get lag... ie, I pres to move forward and then keep moving forward when I take my finger off the button!
Am playing with quite a high spec machine and adjusting the resolution, detail settings etc has little impact...
Any advice. Thank-you!

lag normally caused by the graphics cards time taken to fill screen, install any patches for the games, the next thing is a better card.

Are they online games?
Sometimes lag due to connection speed can cause the game to be unresponsive,

Also check you don't have alot of other programs running that could be causing it.

check game requirements against your pc
check for patches on publishers website
make sure your graphics and sound drivers are current

finally the biggest 2 performance killers are anti aliasing and anisotrpic filtering if you havent done so turn them down or off and work from there
