Problem Details:

Well, as I said before, Is it possible to disable Windows 8/8.1 aero's input lag? in Windows 7 it was easy , i just had to switch aero theme to classic one, or just playing in fullscreen mode, now in windows 8/8.1 what do I have to do? Thanks in advance!

ps: I don't know if this is the right place of the forum to ask, so if i'm wrong to post this thread here i'm really sorry!

I've tried all sorts of things, and I think full screen (or switching back to Windows 7 ;P) is your only option. Even if you manage to disable DWM in Windows 8/8.1, there is still a small amount of latency.

The only real way is to use fullscreen (not borderless) unfortunately.

Couldn't you also end process explorer.exe? You wouldn't have access to your desktop if you do though.

People who upgrade from w7 to w8 will usually end up with problems. On windows 8, fullscreen will induce screen tearing anyways. It's best to keep the OS your computer came with unless it's absolutely necessary.
