Windows 10: Having my device inputs freeze up momentarily very frequently.

I found one post on here where the person seems to have the exact same issue I'm having. I have the link here: Mouse and Keyboard freezing - Microsoft CommunityJust to explain the situation in my own words: I tried out Driver Booster from Steam and regret it ever since. It installed the following drivers without making any backups or restore point: Realtek High Definition AudioGenesys Logic USB3.0 Card ReaderIntelR Wireless BluetoothRIntelR Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265IntelR Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Generic ParticipantIntelR High Definition Audio ProcessorIn

Synaptic pointer freezes momentarily

Hi Peter,

Thank you for choosing Windows 10

It’s unfortunate that touch pad becomes inactive frequently and the pointer doesn’t respond. We will definitely help you with this issue. Just a few question first to understand the issue better;


1) What is the make and model of the touchpad?
2) When did this issue with touchpad start?
3) Did you make any recent hardware or software changes to your computer?


From what you have mentioned, I would suggest you to try these steps to see if it resolves the issue:

Method 1: Troubleshoot

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your touch screen. Refer these steps:

a) Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
b) Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
c) Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
d) Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter

Method 2: Update driver

I would also suggest you to check for updated drivers for your touch screen display in the manufacturer’s website.


a. Press Windows key + X key and click Device Manager.

b. Expand the Touch pad and Mouse.

c. Right-click on the Touch pad and click on Update driver software.

d. Restart the computer and check.


Method 3: Compatibility mode

I would suggest you to uninstall and install the latest available drivers on manufacturer's website in compatibility mode.

Follow the steps below on how to install driver in compatibility mode:

1. Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

2. Right click on the setup file of the driver and select “Properties”.

3. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

4. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.

5. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.

Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

Thanks.

 

Mouse momentarily freezes since Windows 10 Creator edition was installed

Thank you for your response. When I select "Let me pick from a list of device on my computer" I get 2 options:

HID-Compliant device

HID-Compliant Mouse

I select "HID-Compliant Mouse" followed by the "Next" button.

The message "Windows has successfully updated your drivers" is displayed. I did not get a list of drivers to choose from.

This did not resolve the problem.

I have made a further observation as follows:

When the system is searching for drivers there is a green progress bar moves across the screen. This progress bar is also freezing at the same time that the mouse is freezing. Does this suggest that it is a display issue rather than a mouse issue?

I have also timed the freezing and it is occurring for about 1/2 a second every 2 seconds rather than that originally stated above.
