Mouse stutters on startup

Hello, I'm Greg, here to help you with this.

I understand you have Mouse stuttering at startup.

1) Since it happens at Startup the first thing I'd do is Establish a Clean Boot to get rid of Startup freeloaders that can hog resources and cause issues by conflicting:

2) Then try the most common fixes for mouse stuttering here:

3) If none of those help go over Windows 11 with this Performance Checklist to try to find and fix problems:

Mouse Stutter

Was curious to know if anyone can weigh in on this...
I've had a weird mouse stutter where I think I've tried EVERYTHING I can think of and find online. I'm running the latest build of Windows 10. I keep all my drivers uptodate as well. With that said, I've tried the lastest NVidia Drivers, latest Mouse drivers for the mouse I'm using ( logitech g602). I've tried using Logitechs software and not using it.

• reinstalled windows with a clean install
• switched my router to 5ghz
• tried bluetooth connection, ( seems worse than the wifi connection )
• disabled Nvidia High Definition in Device manager
• turned off the power off option under every USB peripheal in Device manager
• Tried another usb port
• tried another mouse... with this being said, I use a wacom tablet. This is studio machine so it's higher much higher end and should not suffer from the mouse lag but noticed this will stutter from time to time as well. But what I just realized this morning and just want to know if I could have a confirmation... I'm currently backing up an older large drive that uses USB 2.0. I'm using backblaze to get everything up as fast as I can.

Since i've had it uploading, I noticed moreso the stutter. Is it possible that this drive could be causing the stutter? If my thinking is correct, even tho it's just uploading online the drive is being accessed and if the USB connection is the bottle neck, I'm thinking this could cause a stutter with other USB peripheals regardless if they are are 3.0 or not
