eq1 is the game sorry forgot to put that in original post... also when in console mode the letters i type go into console and operate it but also control my character too.. so it looks like im spasing out when im using the console.

I'll check on the input bleeding thing.

As far as choppiness, I would have expected that to stop with 0.83, if you got it at all. The problem before, and what your problem may be, was a driver issue. The solution was simply to uninstall, and then reinstall your drivers -- even if you're reinstalling the same version. One of the symptoms before besides lag was not having the overlay text, but since I completely redid that in 0.83 the overlay text should display on any system.

Give reinstalling your NVIDIA driver a shot, and see if it helps. Make sure to uinstall them first.

If it doesn't help, please try WinEQ 2 for a moment and let me know if you get the same choppiness. It would also help to have the SysInfo.txt file from WinEQ 2 (Inner Space does not currently have such a file)

I'm unable to duplicate your issue with the input bleeding. Are you on a non-US server? Or use a non-US keyboard?

Wanted to add to this.

Have a 600GT and i get some funky graphic colors when running IS. If I camp and log on without IS or just WinEQ I dont get the graphics.

Example is lakes and tent tops, they are odd coloring.

Just mentioning this since the post here was same video card.

Weird, did that just start with 0.83 or has it been that way for a while?

ok sorry for late replys... I had to turn win32i inputs off and go strait dx8 to get the text from going through the console to the game. As for the video I did the driver reinstall it didnt help any so i tried the lock foreground option and this helped out quite a bit.. still little choppy though.

Wait ... Win32I input was on in EQ1? Did you do that on purpose?

not real sure hehe... the dx inputs were giving me trouble a couple patches ago... still have to ctrl+alt+f after i close the console to get the input back to eq1 control. Also noticed that the recent patches burn all my texture memory with just 1 session open as to a few revisions ago i could have 3 sessions up and not even half was used with pip active.
