Windows 10: Mouse Sens Lowering Itself With Some Movements Are Slower Than Others

Hey, so I have been having problems with my Ethernet and sometimes it would disconnect itself so I ran the windows diagnostic program to fix that and it did, but right after I immediately noticed my mouse sens seemed to lower itself, my mouse dpi and sens are still the same but not sure why this is happening. Is this a driver problem? Do I need to clean my mouse pad or mouse sensor? I've tried swapping USB ports as well, and still nothing happened. Also some movements seem to be lower than others, for example, if I move my mouse back and forth in the same pattern, it will suddenly make slower movements/inconsistent movements. I play Overwatch a lot and this is very bad for gaming. My mouse is the Logitech M705, it is wireless so I believe that is playing a large part in the problem. I believe this is a computer problem and not a mouse problem. Running on Windows 10.

Mouse sens feels on ice

I updated driver for my mouse, windows. then there was the game update (overwatch) and when i started playing after i updated the game i noticed sens was really high, i even re installed windows and mouse drivers but still the same. Yeah the mouse sens affects
all the actions.

My windows 10 version is 1703, build 15063.540

 

Notchy mouse movement


Well I was wrong. That didn't fix the problem. I think I'm calling it by the wrong name.
I've got erratic cursor movement, I can't even "select" the first 5 words of this sentence using the mouse. I tried changing the cursor speed (slower) that didn't work.
Any body have any ideas?
Thanks, Ron

 

Windows 10 - Jerky Mouse Movement

Sorry to learn about your frustrations. Your mouse problem seems slightly different from the jerky mouse movement on Lenovo's ThinkPad Helix (1st gen with Core i5-3###U). Since we have different hardware, our problems are different. Having said that,
here is how I somehow stumbled upon my solution.

While I was trying to troubleshoot the problem last year, I noticed that:

• The jerky mouse movement will occur several minutes after windows finish booting and I had some chance to open some software like Excel, Outlook or Window's setting options with different duration of normality.
  
• The mouse behaved normally within the space of the device manager window and similar Window's setting screen, but stutter immediately when the mouse cursor leaves the area onto the desktop or other program windows.
  

Since the jerky movement never occur before the ver. 1511 update at the time, it can be safely assumed that there is a driver conflict with the newer version of Windows 10. But since there are so many device drivers, I started with the most obvious, the
mouse driver, but that apparently didn't work because the jerky mouse movement affects the trackpad, trackpoint and external mouse wired or wireless. The reason that I finally started look into the audio driver is from similar experience I had troubleshoot
older computer some years back.

After disabling the audio driver completely in device manager, the jerky mouse problem went away after reboot. But in this day and age, no audio is out of question, so I look elsewhere and found that there are some audio related program in the startup list.
So I disabled them and reboot, then I found the problem went away without disabling the audio device driver completely.

Not familiar with the FMAPP.exe solution from other contributors. And recently in June

HeyRenee mentioned his/her problem was contributed by Adobe Flash security update.

My method is basically trial and error. In the device manager, disable something, reboot and test. In the startup disable something, reboot and test. Stuck on something and finally jump out of the box and try something else. Took couple days to arrive
at the solution by accident. Pretty stupid way to go about it. If I had started with the startup list, I'd arrive at the solution fairly quickly. (search and run Task Manager, click Startup tab)

Like to mention that since I have upgraded to another ThinkPad, I basically wipe everything on the ThinkPad Helix and clean installed the Windows 10's anniversary update (ver. 1607), no jerky mouse movement at all with default drivers. I installed the Lenovo's
Companion and installed Helix specific driver updates and BIOS, avoided audio driver updates if any just in case, and found the mouse behave normally. And so far I don't see the need to install tpfancontrol to keep the Helix cool and lower the fan noise.

I hope you find your solutions soon. Good luck.
