in game lockup

[nadsys]

im hoping others have had this problem and found a resolution to it.

im playing away happily and then all of a sudden my weapon will switch or the silencer will go on/off and i'll keep running in the direction i last pressed (so mouse1/mouse2 or keyboard press that i was doing is still going), this happens for about 2/3 seconds and sods law, always when i run into an enemy (you may laugh now).

its nothing about the server or my ping (ping is 20-40), its definetly client related, as it used to happen with CS1.5 and CS1.6, now its occuring with Source too. I have just last week re-installed entire system from fresh so have all latest drivers, using logitech mx500 mouse and standard keyboard.

so to re-cap, its like a 3 second continuation of my last command i issued, or sometimes it just does random stuff, like my m4a1 silencer will be unscrewed and then it will select my knife and there's an AK47 pointing at me, ohhhhh what do i do now, yikes, run and jump and change to m4a1 like a mad man and hope he's a bad shot (does occasionally work). PLEASE help, mad fan of game and this has ruined my playing for years now.

pc specs:
radeon 9800
2.2 athlonxp
1gb ddr400 ram
asus mobo a7v8x
logitech mouse mx500

if you need anymore info i'll be glad to provide,

thank you fellow addicts

To all problems like this, I have only one answer: reinstall.
It solved all my studdering problems... so go ahead and try that.

hellllpppp

re-installing does nothing as this is the third installation of XP i have had since cs1.5 and cs1.6 and source days. has always been there.

have read all other forum entries for similar problems, no one seems to have a solution.

solution i have read about so far:
1. Disable VPU recover
2. disable anti-virus (its a new install, no AV running yet).
3. change eecutable to run like a 98/ME OS
4. try write protecting the config.cfg
5. dont use USB devices (tried with ps/2 mouse also, no difference)
6. setting fps_max and fps_modem both to 99. (not tried, dont see how it would help)
7. lowering your graphics card settings (dunno if it would help as its mouse/keyboard related problem)

anyone got a fix for this, only happens with games, and its only annoying for games where quick reactions are a must like CS.

in the past i have tried rolling back drivers, tried Oemga drivers and messed with certain CS config files, it neverm helped to make mouse/keyboard better, only got slight better ping from it.

someone?

I have that problem first 30 seconds of a game, I just stand there and wait for it to stop.
