Guitar hero 3 for PC LAG

Originally I bought GH3 for Xbox 360, but my 360 overheated.. so I borrowed GH3 from a friend for PC.. Now when i bought the game for 360 they only had the GH2 controllers in stock but they said they worked fine for Gh3.. still with me?

so now I plugged the GH2 controller into my computer and I'm playing GH3 over the PC with it... but i'm noticing some lag issues... I don't think it's the computer i fiddled with the graphics and everything and had no change... i think that the controller is taking too much power for the USB port.

what i want to find out is: do the PC GH3 controllers work better because they are for computer?

also: is there a way to boost my USB power if that is the case.

i don't want to have to buy a PC controller so is there any way of getting rid of this lag

i suppose USB voltage/power is a solid standard, no matter what device you use.

i'm guessing it's software issue of somesort. are there any drivers available for the guitar-controllers?

or then they were wrong about GH2 controllers working perfectly with GH3.

Here's what you need to do:

Ditch Guitar Hero in genreal. Throw away the controller.

Go down to your local music store.

Buy a $100 acoustic guitar.

Play.

Dont listen to him playing guitar is overrated.rzepak

LOL...exactly. That's why they made a video game about playing the guitar, right?

I borrowed it off a mate on for PC (though the barstard forgot to give me the guitar controller).

I notice no lag - playing it on normal.

When I first started I thought it was lag - but figured it was because i simply sucked.

I was right

The recommended system is a 2.4ghz dual core with an 8800GT.

My buddy runs it fine on his 3.0ghz dual core with an 8600GT. Though...it does lag from time to time on his rig. It never lags on mine though.

I just can't get past three songs on level 8 on hard...slayer, iron maiden, and metallica...grrr...my fingers hurt just thinking about it...So impossible...

Hello, guys.I just bought the GH3 for PC and I installed it into my laptop. I could go into the game, but i couldnt play because it's lag. I used keyboard to play, and when I pressed the buttons, they didn't match what were showed on the screen. I tried to test the video and audio lag but it didn't work. Can someone help me plz?
