  1. Mouse keeps resetting its dpi every few seconds


    this issue just started. i was playing battlefield few days before and suddenly in game the dpi went to its lowest setting. i didnt bother about it that much at the time as i thought i had misclicked. the dpi changing option is on the mouse it self so i can change it any time. then once i closed the game the problem was still there. i increased my dpi again, it stayed like that for a few seconds then the LED lights on the mouse start to flash like they do when i boot the computer and the dpi is again in its lowest form. every time i increase my dpi, after a few seconds the mouse kinda resets it self back to the lowest setting. i had a mouse before that displayed similar problems on the same laptop so i think it might the problem of my computer not my mouse. the lights on the mouse also flash randomly even when i dont change the setting.


    i have also unistalled the drivers and installed new ones but didnt change anything. i dont think i have added any software that might have affected the mouse. i have had all tmy installed softwares for a while..



    I have a HP laptop.





    EDIT : so i did some digging what i did was i went to mouse setting , advanced mouse setting and disabled enhance pointer precision. and moved the pointer scale to a faster setting. now whenever i change my dpi it seems to reset it value to the point i set in the pointer scale. this is still a problem as i cannot change my dpi at all. i cant lower it niether can i increase it beyond this point. its still the same problem but it resets its sensitivity to a higher setting now. hope this helps.

    :)

  2. Mouse DPI

    Hello Ray,

    DPI is the standard used to measure the mouse sensitivity, expressed as the number of DPIs (dots per linear inch) that a device can detect. By changing the DPI, you can instantly adjust pointer speed for precision tasks,
    such as in-game targeting or photo editing. The greater the number of DPIs, the higher the mouse sensitivity, and the faster the pointer speed.
    PS/2 is a type of port used by older computers for connecting input devices such as keyboards and mice, which had six pins with a circular shape.

    Some mouse models include dedicated buttons (DPI On-the-fly buttons) you can use to instantly adjust your mouse sensitivity (DPI).

    Thank you.

    Mouse keeps resetting its dpi every few seconds

    Which DPI do you use for your gaming mouse?

    1400 - 1200 - 1000

    In the middle 1200 on desktop and most games. If i need a bit faster or slower those values are there for that. Might though change the faster one higher once my BC2 arrives.

    'Just' 3 settings so that I know without looking where it's at and can get with one press to what I want.

    btw. had a 1000dpi static dpi laser mouse before. Have upped the DPI in 50 steps. Started in 1100dpi with this mouse (G5).
