Mouse freeze

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have this problem with my mouse that when I play a game or any other graphics action, it just freeze for a few seconds and do this intermittent! I have tried 4 wireless mouse and one direct wired mouse, stay the same problem. It does it in all 4 USB ports.
 
Is your graphics card driver up to date? There’s been a recent release for Intel & nVidia drivers.
Do you have a desktop theme active which changes the taskbar colour when the wallpaper changes? If yes then try a theme which has a default/one taskbar colour.
Is Windows up to date? There was a new cumulative update released yesterday (24th).
 
really long shot, but after 4 different mice, wireless vs cable, and still have the issue, what is still the common factor?
mouse pad.... maybe?

try a folded piece of A4 paper and see if anything improves.

Hi, thanks for the reply, my windows are up to date. I have tried all the tricks in the trade other than inside the brain of the computer. I have purchased two new wireless mouse as well. This problem started months ago with little interference, it just became worse over time! I purchased a new graphics card and it still freeze and become sticky!
 
ones with images on them??? :unsure:

I'm trying to get you to use a plain piece of paper, in case, just in case, the mouse is picking up the lines on the image and making it do weird things.
yes it's a bloody long bow to draw, but I've seen coloured/imaged pads do stupid things with laser mouses (mice?).
