Windows 10: choppy mouse

Windows 10-1607
i7 16GB ram
SSD + HDD
recently started - intermittent problem - CPU usage under 10% - RAM usage about 30% - DPCs appear OK

When moving the mouse it acts like it is being preempted by other operations/interrupts and starts/stops moving for random times. I am not seeing any CPU spikes or anything else unusual but I may not be looking for the right things or using the right tools. Any trouble shooting suggestions?

Severe ChoppyCursor Lag

Hello, just today with Windows 10 I started to experience severe cursor lag. The cursor itself is choppy and laggy, almost as if the frame rate of the whole desktop is dropping however it's only the mouse. While the mouse is EXTREMELY choppy and laggy, the
rest of the applications in the backround run extremely smooth, as if the mouse isn't choppy at all. When I move the mouse horizontally, the mouse seems to teleport, as if it were never in the space in between. When clicking, I have to click a couple times
before it actually registers. I tested it out in the game league of legends, and the game ran smooth however the in-game cursor itself did the same as it would outside of the game. I have re installed the Geforce game ready drivers. I also have yet to find
another person witht he same case as me. I have had windows 10 for almost a year now.

Erratic mouse in games W10 Anniversary Update

Mouse is erratic, choppy and slow in Klondike Solitaire after W10 Anniversary update. It works fine everywhere else. How do I fix this?

 

Is this a standard wired mouse? Gaming mouse with it's own drivers? Wireless mouse?

I assume you have checked and toggled the Mouse Settings: Control Panel > Mouse.

Another quick test is to go into Device Manager and Uninstall the Mouse, then restart the computer. The mouse will reinstall on startup.

And these kinds of problems can be caused by graphics drivers. If you have recently installed a new graphics driver and the problem started after that then you might want to roll it back. If there is a newer graphics driver available for your card/chip then try installing that. Do a Clean Install if that option is available.

 

Hi ruggb what is your Mouse sitting on when in use ?

 

mouse is on a wood desk.
mouse has been working fine, so I don't think it is a driver issue.
HOWEVER, it stopped totally, after a week of this, because the rechargeable battery was dead.
So the issue may be the way this mouse (relatively new to me) operates when the battery is weak.
Other mice just stop. This one tries to hang on til it is dead and causes it to respond as if the system is pre-empting it. I have had other mice do that because of the system. The last recharge I got a warning. Maybe I missed it this time. When it gets there again I will verify this solution. Thanks
BTW, it is a Logitech MX Master mouse.

 

Hi,

I had a similar fault & had to disable Cortana completely to get the mouse to move when told to. The bit that worked best was the stop learning feature. See here................. LINK
