    Hi, just one question,. When i play need for speed, there seems to be some king of latency when i use my airflo game controller. First i thought it was just the streering was a little late, but even when i hit the brakes the brake lights don't come for about a half a second. Is there anyway to get rid of this latency? Thanx for any help.

    Help Please. This should be an easy one for someone here. I'm dumb when it comes to video cards and games. Thanx again.

    Are you using the latest driver configuration?
    I have a NYKO airflo PC and havent had any problems
    except when I was using the drivers from the CD that
    came with the controller.
    I downloaded a new driver from the Nyko website,
    I havent had any trouble since.

    Good Luck

    O.k it's not my nyco controller that causes the latency. i got new logitech and it does the same thing. however i do like this controller better. The problem i think is my video card witch is a 9550 readon with all updated drivers. in the game need for speed there is 2 settings for video resolution and detail and the higher i raise them the more latency i get. To be able to play the game i have to set the detail low at about 25% and the resolution at 640 x 480. and that seems a little low. especialy since i have an intel at 3.4Ghz 1 gig daul channel 3200pc 400mhz of ram. and of course the readon card witch is 256Mb ram and agp speed of 8x. i shoul be able run at a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 with a higher detail. but when i do that the latency is almost a second after i hit a button or try to turn the car. I checked my bios and that all looks fine. Is there some setting in the ati controll catalyst that could be wrong and should i mess with the hardware accelerator? Thanx for any help.
