I'm having some problems with FG right now, it's slow (as in mouse movement, selecting etc.), I have not had this problem before, is it unique or did something happen in the last update?

Nothing happened in the last update that could cause this.

Check these in order:
- Look at windows task manager - how much memory and CPU is FantasyGrounds.exe using? Are there any other processes running that are using a lot of memory/CPU?
- Restart your computer and see if it still occurs.
- Start a new campaign without any extensions or modules activated. Does it happen with this bare-bones campaign? If not, load up your normal campaign and check the memory use and CPU of FantasyGrounds.exe in Windows task manager.

Not sure if this is your issue, but I get this behaviour when new DLC is updating or re-downloading.

If you load FG, wait about 15 minutes, does it still have the issue? Did it start acting this way right after opening new content?

To be honest I have not used FG in a while and have only downloaded the updates as they've gotten released, It's not game-breaking but the mouse-pointer micro-stutters so to speak and moving windows within FG is also done with a bit of stuttering. I've closed all background applications, I've restarted the computer, same issue. Perhaps I should re-install FG?
I have 16 GB of Ram so this should not be the issue either (FG uses about 1% of the CPU and 300-600 MB of Memory)... annoying but I'll live :)

Cheers for all the help though, excellent community!

UPDATE: I updated the NVIDIA drivers again, and lo and behold, no more stuttering... :)
