Windows 10: Processor load increases on mouse movements on en empty Windows desktop tested on different...

HelloI have tested the following szenario on different PC's with new windows 11 installation, without special GPU, standard mouse and keyboard with windows driver, no further applications. - I noticed that the processor load increases more when the mouse is moved on an empty desktop up to 34% on my reporting pc. I suspected event handlers that are executed on mouseOver or mouseMove events, so I started the following experiment on different systems:For the experiment, I started a browser, opened an empty web page without DOM elements with event handler about:blank and was waiting a little u

Microsoft Ergonomic Sculpt Mouse - Quick Movements Cause Incorrect Movements

Hi,

Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community.

Please confirm the following things for me.

1. What is the make and model of your system?
   
2. Was there any major change on your system prior to which you were able to use the mouse without any issues?
   
3. Does the issue with the mouse occur when it is used on a different system?
   

I would suggest you to update the driver for your mouse under ‘Mice and other pointing devices’. You can follow the steps in this article on ‘Update
drivers in Windows 10’ and uninstall the mouse driver.

Please visit this link to download and install the driver for your ‘Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse’.
Kindly restart the system and check if this worked out for you.

Hope it helps.

Increasing the maximum touchpad speed (mouse pointer movement speed)

I searched the whole internet

I searched all over reddit

I searched in Superuser

But I could not find a program or a trick to increase the speed of the touchpad (mouse pointer movement speed with the laptop touchpad).I maximized the touchpad speed in the Windows settings and the laptop touchpad program, but it is still too low for me.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

 

What's the difference between these two processors.

the first one is stepping E3, the second one is stepping E6. whats stepping?

No processor design is perfect. The first version of a new microprocessor product is the A-0 step. Later, as improvements are made to the product for functional (bug) fixes or manufacturing improvements, the stepping number will increase.

Generally speaking, minor changes result in an increased number, (that is, A-1 to A-2) while more complex changes result in the letter being changed (that is, A-2 to B-0).

If new steppings come out with fewer bugs you are usually not eligible to RMA for a newer processor. Most of these bugs are supposed to be worked around in the motherboard design, BIOS (drivers), and applications.

Intel produces a detailed document called a "Specification Update" for each of their processor models that covers all of the various steppings, and lists exactly which bugs (they call them "errata") each one has and a description of the bug. For example you can download the Pentium IV specification Update from Intel at http://developer.intel.com/design/pentium4/specupdt/
A similar document is available for every processor they make.

AMD uses the term "revision numbers" to refer to steppings for its Athlon and other processors. To see the errata for a given AMD processor, look up its revision guide, which lists the processor revision numbers and the errata which apply to each revision. For example, the revision guide for the AMD Athlon XP model 8 processor is available from AMD at
http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/25703.pdf

what does this all mean, well you are likely to have less compatablity problems with the newer version of the processor, but as most motherboard manufactures are good with bios updates, this should not be a problem.
