    Last night my computer started freaking out. When I went into COD 4 all movements with my mouse in the main menu caused the background to lag. When I joined the hardcore server, the lag only came when I was moving my mouse. When I was spectating, I could use my keyboard to move around just fine. My FPS remained between 150-300. The second I moved my mouse my FPS dropped to 20. This problem was also present in COD 2.

    I tried swithing my video cards and tried a different mouse but with no success. All my other games seem to work fine. Any Ideas?

    OK, shit finally got worked out. The problem came from the latest X-Fire update. The game is working fine as long as x-fire is not open.
