OK. There is so little information here to start working with that I'm going to give a bit of advice on where to begin looking and some programs that will give others here some specific information in order to assist you better in resolving your problems.
First of all, I have no clue what you are referring to by "sliding choice buttons". There are very few areas of the game that use a slider in the selection process and even fewer that have a slider without a numeric input box. But ... I'll leave that for you to explain in a later post. Letting us know which sliding choice buttons you are referring to may help narrow down the problem. Off the top of my head at 3 AM I can think of sliders in the Costume Creator screens (including the corresponding sliders in Icon/Facemaker screens and MA Custom Critter creation screens), the sliders in Trade windows (I think there are sliders there, I seldom use the Trade option so can't remember, but I believe they also have a numeric entry box if there are sliders there), the sliders in WW/BM transaction windows (and these have a numeric entry box as well). There may be a few other sliders, but it's not very many more if there are, and at 3 AM I'm lucky to be this coherent. You can thank the Hydrocodone for my current lucidity.
I'd recommend starting with Zloth's ++ Common Solutions & Posting Guidelines ++ thread that is stickied in this forum.
Secondly, post a log from running CoH Helper as it will give information about your system and the CoH installation and settings.
Thirdly, post a log from running HijackThis. This will show what else is going on on your computer while you are playing CoH.
As for the lag, what server(s) are you playing on? What times are you playing that you are running into the lag? What zones are you in during those times of lag, are you in any particular buildings such as the AE buildings?
What type of internet connection do you have? Cable? DSL? Dial-up? Wireless? Satellite? Are you behind a router?
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I'm guessing the video options screen that many other MMOs let you have access to before you even get into the game.
SoAngry, please go ahead and post the log results of the CoH Helper and HijackThis programs and we'll let you know how to set those sliders!

Two additions.
First: Checking the safe mode box before you continue into the game will put your settings to the absolute minimum. Then once in the game you can gradually adjust your settings upward till you find a point at which the game is playable.
Second: This game is much much much more processor and video intensive than WoW and Warhammer. There are very few things on the market period that will put greater stress on the system. Crysis is at about the same level as this game on maximum settings.

so i cant figure out why my comp wont let the sliding choice buttons work, they dont show up at all just the underneath bar i play warhammer and wow and my comp works fine. but this isnt letting me play, the errors make gameplay unbearable. i cant do anything. this seems to be more then one problem and i lag out REALLY bad, yes ive uninstalled and reinstalled and all the fun stuff from the download thing that takes me 3 hours. and i dont want to do it again. anyoen got a fix or did i just waste 20$?
