Mouse lag - Hybrid Graphics card [Intel/nVidia]


Hey guys,

i recently switched to Win10 (clean install), after installing all the drivers i noticed a little mouse lag when i do certain tasks:

• Plugin any USB device
• Changing mouse settings
• sometimes right clicking on the taskbar

I have noticed it comes from the nVidia card.

I have a MSI Laptop which has a little indicator on the power button (White light = Intel card is in use, Orange light = nVidia card is in use), and as soon as i plugin any USB device i see the indicator changes from white to orange for like 1-2 seconds and goes back to white. So this means, the nVidia card is running for a very short time and this causes the lag as it seems.

I have uninstalled the drivers and tested with the Intel Graphics drivers only - No lag!

But i can't use the Laptop without the nVidia drivers, since i sometimes like to play games.

So anyone knows about this issue? Is there a way to fix it? Because on 8.1 i don't have this issue...

Edit:

Some specs:

Intel HD Graphics 4000
nVidia GTX 675MX

Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?
