What resolution and settings are you running SE5 a

I had the same problem and managed to make it much better by going to the Catalist Control Center -- > 3D Standard Settings -- > Smoothvision: Anti-Aliasing and clicked the “Performance” button; default on mine was quality. I should mention that my system is older and slower than yours so when I say better it is relative. Know what I mean?

AA and SLI are killing the framerate and mouse movement for me. I'm on an nVidia 7950GX2 though.

Constantly changing the global drivers setup when switching between games is a drag. Forget to change a couple of parameters and it either looks like cr*p or is too choppy. For instance NWN2 needs everything a modern card can offer while SE5 requires "compatibility with the 90's mode". For this the nVidia drivers allow one to create specific profiles for games, so you set it up once for a game and they will always load them when that exe takes over the screen. AFAIK this feature also exists for ATI cards, and a 3rd party utility like ATI Tray Tools may have a better interface for managing these profiles, just like nHancer (http://nhancer.com) does for nVidia cards.

I remembered this since the other day, after playing NWN2, I launched SE5 when 1.13 came out and got an almost dead mouse again. So I fired up nHancer, created a proper game profile for SE5 after a couple of tries, and can now switch between these games without changing anything in the drivers setup.

I only got mouse-lag (though it was extreme) when viewing the component list of a constructed ship/unit. That's on a poxy geforce 440MX

Yes, SLI kills the framerate and introduces huge mouse lag.

I can play FEAR XP at 1920x1200 with almost everything set to high on my dual 7900 GTX's, but when I load SE5, I have to disable SLI, or else the mouse lag is terrible, almost uinplayable. With it disabled, though, it runs just fine at 1920x1200.
