Windows 7 Windows 7 Mouse stutter driving me crazy

[Marcello73]

Ever since installing Windows 7 (64 bits) my mouse stutters. Skipping every now and then, staying in one position while I move the mouse, etc. I do a lot of photo editing and it's really annoying and makes my work almost impossible.

Hope someone can help me out. I already tried some stuff on the web like checking latency, changing USB power settings, etc.

My system:

Intel i5 (750 I think)
MSI P55-GD65 (not the USB3 version)
Adata memory 8GB
Radeon HD 5850 videocard
Microsoft keyboard set 3000
Bamboo pad (older version)
Installed a USB 3 hub, but stuttering already happened before that.
Other hardware includes:
- Epson V600 scanner
- HP Photosmart 5360
- Epson STylus Photo R2880
- Logitech MSN cam (disconnected)
- 2 DVD Rom drives (Asus and LG)

The MS keyboard/mouse combo 3000, did you check to see if it was compatible with windows 7 64 bit OS? Have you reinstalled the latest drivers for it?

Also, have you checked the batteries to see if they need replacing?

Have you tried another mouse? Cleaned out he lens cavity? I keep a can of compressed dusting gas handy just for that.

Thnx for your response. I already tried new batteries and have uninstalled and re-installed the newest driver several times. With or without the driver... results are the same. I didn't try another mouse yet. However I do remember my old Logitech mouse doing the same thing after I installed Win7. By the way... this isn't the same install. I re-installed on SSD only a few months ago. Same result.

Anyone know about driver issues? Drivers colliding, settings in Bios... whatsoever?

None that I'm aware of...it could be to that it's about to brake/quit or go bad. They do ware out and go bad from time to time. Might be time to start thinking about getting a new one.

Hi guys, before trying a new mouse I decided to try a better surface. Probably the most stable thing during the time I have had this problem is the surface. New installs, new hardware, new software didn't change a thing. Neither did new batteries or a re-install of the driver. So... got me a Razer Sphex mouse pad thing (very slim and sticks to the table). Works great so far. Will do some work today and tomorrow and will see if the problem re-occurs.

Will let ya know!

I have had this problem for a while. I finally got the mouse working smooth with no stuttering.
Here is my correction to the problem. I unplugged my wireless netgear router for a minute, then plugged it back in.
After it reset, the mouse was back to normal...go figure?? I have a neighbor with the same issue, and it also worked for him.

Hi All, i've had similar problems with my new Logitech MX800 mouse/keyboard. I've tried many suggestions I found on many forums but no luck.

It turns out the USB wireless receiver was a bit too far away from the mouse or something interfered with the signal. I bought a USB extender cable, plugged in the wireless receiver, put it closer to the keyboard and mouse and it is all working fine now for 5 days.
