Occasional mouse stutters when gaming.

[Jackytld]

I've got this issue where I occasionally get weird mouse stutters every 1-2 minute or so.
I am using a steelseries rival 300, but i've tried using a different mouse where the same stutters occur, which leads me to think that it has got something to do with my computer. This doens't only happen in one game but also in other games. Though when im not playing any game, but instead on my desktop browsing, there are no mouse stutters.

I've tried searching the net for a while now, unfortunately without any luck.

Has anyone had this issue or know how to resolve it?

What kind of mouse?

Also have you tried to change out the mouse pad? or at least tried it on another surface type? Have you tried another USB port? etc...

I just washed my mousepad that i've been using for some years now. But the issue seems to still be there. I have also tried another USB port, again without any luck.

Im convinced it doesn't have anything to do with my monitor. But im using a BenQ 2411z which I bought last august.

Have you tried another surface area though?

Ok, how long have you been using this mouse? a mouse can go bad but that is rare but ware can cause things to happen. Try a different mouse and see if it still occurs.

Surface area as in another mousepad?
Because the mouse doesn't respond to my desktop surface

I've already tried a different mouse. A deathadder chroma so to speak. The issue still occurs though.

Correct. Another mouse pad or any other surface that it may work on. You can even try using a piece of paper, just another to test on other then your existing mouse pad.

Alright i will give it a try, and update you in some minutes.

So i've tried another mousepad, even a piece of paper. And it still happens...

Wow, i've never heard of this problem. Can you go to device manager and right click on your mouse and click on scan for hardware changes/update driver?

 

[androbourne]

Ok.

And again what kind of mouse? Logitech or something different? I normally go logitech and they have drivers for their keyboards and mice. You may want to check drivers, reinstall and/or upgrade them.

Also it could be something weird like a malware or virus causing those issues. Specially if it seems to be happening with other mice. just to be safe I would run, ccleaner, anti virus scan, malwarebytes and adaware removal tool.

OP stated his mouse was a steelseries rival 300

Right, same answer applies. Try newer drivers. Should be included with the engine install.

Also at the bottom of the page they office firmware versions. Apply that as well.

Yeah, try to upgrade drivers. I just find it very weird that it happens to other mice too... I feel very bad for you. Never out of my 10 years in computers have I heard of this problem.

Well it is slowly driving me crazy too, as I have tried numerous of solutions. I have also tried upgrading and downgrading driver/firmware of the mouse, again, without any luck..

The weird thing is that a friend of mine also has this issue, he too bought a new mouse but the issue is still occuring. What could the issue actually be caused by at this point?

Unfortunately i've already tried this too..

Another question.

Are these mice you are using and testing with wired or wireless?
