Hope anyone can help with this. I run LFS on Vista and while in game whenever I need to acces the mouse it flickers and is barely visible. I loaded the game to compare on my old laptop with Xp and the mouse stays steady (much easier) but the Vista machine is much better to play on... Any ideas?

Second question which I hope isnt too dumb... Since I installed the Y patch the only car (i think) I can use the padels on the wheel with is the BF1. Other cars require me to take my foot off the accelerator to change gear with the padels. Im using a Logitech DFP which is fine but its not fun to need to lift off the accelerator to change gear. Thanks in advance.

Changing gears is serious business.

No idea about mouse issues. If you have some fancy gaming mouse maybe it came with its own drivers that might need quoting.

That's reality for you I'm afraid.
A lot of the cars now require you to lift on gearchange or you will burn out the clutch.
It doesn't take long to adapt.

Not sure if you drive IRL but if you do and do not mind the posibility of causing damage to your car try and change gear with your food planted all the time.

BTW: In LFS you do not have to lift on any car with sequentail gearbox apart from FMB. Have a look at the gearbox type in the Info page in the setup for each car to see what transmission they have

Thanks guys for the feedback.
