Technical Bug - Please Help - Character Moving on its own

[SkScotchegg]

Hi there guys, please can you help me with this problem, recently my character in CoD4 and in HL2:EP2 has been moving on its own, because its happening in two games I find this very strange. At first I thought it was just CoD4, but now I've seen it in HL2:EP2 aswell it makes me think its not the games, I'm going to revert back to some old drivers now because I think I have the latest drivers installed for my graphics card.

I'm using a Sapphire x1950 pro 512mb AGP.

Has anyone else had this problem before? And do you know how to fix it.

For about 4 seconds I lose control of my character and it walks forwards or sideways on its own. its very strange, I dont have a joystick plugged in to the USB either.

Thanks in advance,

But I don't think thats the problem, I dont have any stuck keys?

And I already completed HL2 and CoD4 with no bug, and its been fine for months, this bug just appeared in the last two weeks.

Sounds like an issue I had with most fps's - ut2k4 / hl2 etc. - on my old comp. Would just stop responding to input and go where it wanted, sometimes would cause the keyboard lock beeping sound. I don't think I ever really fixed it, but iirc turning off indexing in windows possibly did help.

How do I disable indexing?

mine used to do this, its like it completely locks up from inputs like said above, maybe some sort of IRQ conflict? think mine was down to a CPU overclock malfunctioning or something overheating though.

Whats an IRQ conflict?

Same thing happens with my wireless keyboard as well.

I dont have a wireless Keyboard mate, its a Logiech keyboard that plugs in with those pins.

UPDATE: Also I dont have my steering wheel, joypad and joystick plugged into the USB. All thats plugged in is my Logitech mouse, DVD Writer & Baracuda Headset.

Thanks in advance,
