I'm not sure what you mean by this. Out of curiousity: do you run a second monitor? If so, do you run Xinerama or Dual View?
Xinerama is known to "detach" mouse input once in a while, freaky bug -- but nothing to do with keyboard input.
180.22 driver with clean wine-1.1.14 wineprefix should work just fine. Install it from the official nvidia website if anything.
To clarify: Usually, you move your character in 3rd person with the WSAD keys or the mouse, or interact with the game world by clicking on non-player-characters and other game objects with the mouse. Also the camera is controlled by simultaneously holding a mouse button and moving the mouse (doesn't work.). Pressing keys or mouse buttons seemingly isn't registered by the game in that part of the screen - but on UI elements, such as the in-game menu or the inventory, mouse clicks and keyboard keys are working just fine. I'll attach an explanatory screenshot if needed.
No second monitor attached - just the build-in LCD screen. No Xinerama running, no Dual View configured.
It might be worth noting that the build-in graphic card is of the Hybrid SLI variant - which means that there are actually two integrated graphic cards. The one in use is specified by BusID in xorg.conf.. If there is more info needed I'ld be glad to provide.
For now, I'll try the 180.22 driver and report back.
I tried with a clean prefix, actually I tried just after purging wine, manually rm'ing ~/.wine and reinstalling 1.1.14 from WineHQ's repository.
