I am having issues with my mouse skipping pixels / pixel jitteration. I am currently using the Razer Abyssus. I went searching around, but didn't find any fixes. There is a driver from razer, but it's for insert delays? The only thing I could find was some mice do skip pixels when set to high sensitivity, but usually they releases fixes for them. For example, the diamondback had this issue, but everything was fixed after a driver release? Is there anyway to fix my issue, because it's completely unplayable. :S
 
Perhaps it's the surface you're using the mouse on? I had a similar problem, different mouse though, until i got one of the steelseries gaming mats.

The very first thing to try is a couple of different surfaces. Try running the mouse on a piece of plain letter paper or cardboard, etc. If any of those fix the problem then you can rule out the mouse or drivers.
 
Actually, I'm using a really nice mouse pad, and I figured how to fix it. I just have to turn down the sensitivity+dpi, which completely fixes the pixel jumping. I think I'm having this same issue with another mouse, but it's really crappy. XD
