    It really messes things up when you're scrolling using the keyboard arrow keys. I've looked everywhere and can't find anything to control this. But it must be somewhere. I'm pretty sure my last install didn't do this. Would have driven me nuts.

  2. Mouse Cursor stops moving..

    I cant tell if its a short in the wire. Ive tried the fix about going to virtual memory and changing those settings. Its simply just a very short stop while im moving the cursor around. Almost if it lags behind the movement. I've tried USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. Its an old Dell mouse and I cant even afford to get a 5$ mouse right now with the way things are. It ypically spend free time playing FPS and this is making it to where i cant even do the thing I enjoy. Not sure what it could be. The mouse could be fine for 10-15 seconds and ill say. well okay its better. But then it will do it again shortly after.

    Also, I remember there used to be a Peripherals subforum a while back here?

    Problems with mouse cursor lockup.

    Aaaand the ironic thing there is, that no doubt WOULD void the warranty.

    Seriously though, thanks for the suggestion but I plan to wait for their response. They said they can't authorize a replacement unless all the troubleshooting steps they emailed me don't work, which they didn't.

    I've also contacted Newegg, and they said they'll do anything they can to help get me a manufacturer replacement in the case of the mouse not working with any of Logi's troubleshooting steps and if Logi refuses to replace it.

    I had an MX500 that easily outlasted this one with lots of use. Seems to me the more complex the mouse, the more failure prone they are.
