Hello,
I've already upgraded lwjgl and that didn't solve the problem. I originally
thought
that it was a problem related to Minecraft alone but that clearly isn't the
case,
since I experience the same problem playing Counter-Strike, which leads me
to
believe the problem is on a layer above those two games.
When I go home I'll download OpenArena or some other FPS and play a while
to see if I can reproduce this error in yet a third game.
Thank you,
