  1. Consistent cursor lag


    Hi guys,

    I have a M705 Marathon mouse and I have started to see the problem where if I move the mouse in circles continuously, the cursor would freeze in a position for a split second, then continue moving in ordinary fashion. I removed my mouse and tried it with my touchpad, and found that it has the same problem as well.

    I do not know what may have caused this, and have been searching for an answer for a while. I have tried reinstalling drivers for the mouse, looking at touchpad settings, and many other things, but I can't seem to find the answer.

    My laptop specs are: Windows 10, Acer e5-771g-50jp, 2 GB Nvidia Ge-Force graphics, 8GB RAM, 1 TB HD

    Thanks *Smile

    :)

  2. Mouse cursor lag and slow down occasionally

    Recently, I am encountering a mouse cursor lag problem on my PC (Win10)

    The cursor occassionally lags when I move the mouse consistently

    Demonstration:

    In the demonstration, I moved my mouse consistently towards right, but cursor stops moving at few instances

    My mouse is Logitech G502, I believe my mouse has no problem because I tried it with my laptop (Win10) and it worked perfectly fine, the cursor never lagged and movement is consistent.

    Any suggestions?

    Congratulations, you found 1 thing out of the many I called out in this thread, and found it doesn't consistently lag every time. Did I ever claim everything lags consistently every single time? No...

    "It all depends on your setup" - incorrect. It doesn't all depend on your setup, because the clock lag is there by design!

    Consistent cursor lag

    This is a wireless mouse with a USB Receiver, always possible something can be disturbing the signal between the receiver and the mouse.
    Make sure mouse and the mouse pad it is on is clean, sensor at bottom of the mouse. Are the batteries good ?

  5. Batteries are good, and I just cleaned the sensor.
    I don't think this is a problem with the mouse, since I am also having this problem with the touchpad on my laptop.
    May be connected to Windows 10?

    I do not have a touchpad, but check in Mouse and Touchpad settings. Left click the Start menu select Settings go to Devices find it there. Go over some of the settings for cursor. Make sure have all system updated drivers for this system.

    Consistent cursor lag

    O.k. so both the touchpad and M705 mouse make the cursor freeze at times, is this correct ?

    Any chance system slows down when this happens, things load slowly ?

  11. The problem did not occur in Safe Mode (YES) but is back after a normal boot-up.
    I don't see any slow down when I circle the mouse, but the CPU usage will go up 1% while doing this.

    O.k. i wanted to know if it was caused by high CPU or Disc usage is why i asked and forgot to before as this can cause freezes or hangs. Seems since it does not happen in safe mode then it is due to a driver on the system and or running process from a software, not Windows 10 doing this.

    Consistent cursor lag

    Have you ever checked Acer's site for updated Windows 10 drivers for this laptop and any listed ?

  14. So far, it looks like it is laying off after a touchpad update from Acer website...
    I'll keep you on tabs for performance

    Think i may have mentioned this twice about updates for system, but seemed to be told i tried that. Also try reinstalling the M705 and or make sure it is up to date believe sept 2015 is latest software driver, although can do without the driver it will work might be same with Touchpad. Most of these drivers just bring extra functionality to the device and windows generic do fine, sometimes it is the conflict of these drivers with Windows. See how it goes.
