So i've been using my mouse for let's say.. at least 4 years now, i never had any issues with it, it's wired and it worked up until last month, it started acting weird, once i'm gaming or doing anything it starts freezing and then suddenly working again, almost as if it it's "lagging" because it tracks my movements but it does it after a big delay and does it suddenly and it feels like it has a spasm.. i tried a bunch of stuff, and nothing helped. I tried another mouse and i have the same issue! I really don't know what's wrong, everything else i connect to every port works perfectly except the mice.. anyone has any ideas?

    Hi DabtheGreat,

    I am sorry you are having this problem. I know it is really frustrating. My name is Cindy.

    Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling your mouse drivers in your device manger? Here are the directions.

    Many times, reinstalling the Mice and other pointing device drivers may fix this problem. I have attached the directions below.

    1. Please right click on the Start Menu and select Device Manager. Then hit enter.

    This will open the Device Manager.

    1. Scroll down the page and click on Mice and other pointing devices.
    2. Right click on all of the file drivers and uninstall them. Don't worry. Windows will reinstall them.
    3. Then restart the computer. Windows will reinstall the drivers and fix any problems with the drivers.

    Please let me know if this does not work as there are other things we can try.

    Sincerely,

    Cindy
