    Starting Laptop, Mouse Pointer Freezes after a little While


    Hello Everyone I am having a problem with my laptoppointer.When I start up and the desktop is loaded, not to long after, the pointer stops working, freezes, and I have to restart the device using the pointer keyboard key.The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 3537 Win8 which has been upgraded to Win10 I am also getting microphone not being detected.Not long ago the webcam wasn't being detected either.I have uninstalled each one by the device manager, but this hasn't helped.Could anyone direct me on other ways to get these to work.The laptop has hardly been used in its lifetime.

    :)

    Mouse Pointer

    Hi,

    You can customize your mouse in a variety of ways in Windows. To change how your mouse pointer looks, you can follow the steps below:

    • Right-click on the Start menu, then click Control Panel.
    • Select Mouse, then go to the Pointers tab.
    • Select the pointer you prefer from the drop-down list, click
      Apply > OK.

    If you want to use a pointer that is not on the list, you can download it online. After that, go to Control Panel > Mouse > Pointers tab again, then click
    Browse.

    Update us if it addressed your issue.

    Mouse/pointer freezing


    Before I start I'd just like to say that I'm no computer wiz, so please be kind *Cool
    Just purchased a new PC (Lenovo) and was truly excited about it, it came with the 'free' upgrade to Windows 10. It seemed to be awesome until I, like what seems everyone else on here started noticing the mouse/pointer freezing and/or the keyboard freezing (while trying to type it would just be REALLY delayed). The mouse willjust freeze randomly, all else (like others mentioned) still works, music plays, alt tab, ctr alt del, just not the mouse..it freezed for a little while and then it reingages and is usable. Really frustrating. Computer is BRAND NEW...and should be top of the line, it's a Lenovo K450e

    Thanks in advance...

    MOUSE POINTER-SIZE-BRIGHTNESS-VISIBILITY

    Or, if you like to see how to do it in Windows 7:

    1. Start button (bottom left)
    2. Control Panel
    3. Hardware and sound
    4. Mouse
    5. The Pointers tab
    6. Under scheme, select the pointer you want
    I use the Windows Black Extra Large

    A suggestion:

    on the Pointer options tab

    Check the box next to automatically move the pointer to the default button
