Hi I'm getting a seriously strange mouse issue.

Everytime I move my mouse at a highspeed it stalls or glitches. That is if I try to do a 180 turn in game with a whip motion I get a stall, or if I scroll from the top right X button in FireFox to the Start menu too fast I also get a stall. Wiggle the mouse, stall, do anything other than smooth very slow and linear movements and I get a stall.

This problem happens with all of the mice I own; 2 different types of Logitech mice, and a pos Creative. The Logitech Optical Mouse I own is totally brand new out of the box and still gets this issue.

I've tried installing individual MouseWare drivers for each of the Logitech mice and the problem still has not been solved.

I've tried putting all the mice in all the various ports they support, usb, and p2 whatever im computer ignorant...

I'm working with a fresh install of windows from this morning.

I actually reformat due to previous mouse issues, which seem to be gone now... only to be replaced with this one. I'm not sure what exactly caused my mouse issues pre-format, but my mouse basically accelerated at a level much higher than what it was set at. I deleted all of the mouse drivers on my computer a few times with various 3rd party apps and still had the issue.
I think this problem started occuring after uninstalling the CS mouse accelfix and some crappy Razor drivers.

The huge acceleration problem is gone now but I'm getting these horrible stalls.
It basically makes gaming impossible and no fun.

Oh I also tried lowering my graphics acceleration requirments in the Windows display options and that didn't solve anything either.
And the obvious, changing the surface the mouse scrolls under to various mouse pads and wooden panels etc

Could this be a motherboard problem?
Does anyone have any ideas?
 
Alright, first please list the exact mice you are using.
It might be a bad driver issue from the mouse (or mouse company), still could be the surface you are using. The mouse+surface are just not wanting to connect properly. Check the underside of your mouse and give it a good cleaning just in case a spec of dirt got in there.
 
Will do, and here's some more background information if it helps.
I've been using the same surface for gaming my whole life, and the same brand of mouse as well. Nothing has changed over the last 5 years aside from installing the CALmousefix and some Razor drivers + a Razor mouse - I wanted to check if it'd actually make my game response better, it didn't so I uninstalled and tossed it. Since around that time I've been having various troubles as I described in post 1. I've now found that reformatting doesn't seem to help either and it is not an issue tied to one mouse.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826104134 (I like these mice and actually have 3 of them, I've never had a problem with them before or with using them on my desk)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826104026 (brand new out of the box a few days ago, and has the same issue as the other logitech)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826158015 (some pos that i bought to check if it was the logitech drivers)

All 3 mice get the same issue. I get the issue despite multiple reformats and it seems to have just come up out of the blue (I wouldn't blame the Razor uninstall or the CALmousefix uninstall for them).

Is there anything else that might be the problem?
 
Possible problems:
~USB port - I know you tried other non-USB ports, but have you tried other USB ports?
~Have you tried the Logitech drivers?
~Are there any recent problems with your mouse surface that could cause the stutter? Look for very small ones.
~Do you have the ability to test these mice on another computer?

Those are all I can think of off the top of my head currently, will need to run through problems I have had and see there are any more possible solutions.
 
thanks alot
i've tried the other usb ports, logitech drivers, regular windows drivers, cleaned my desk a million times, bought a new mouse pad, etc though i'm still working on testing the mice on another computer
 
ok i tried the mice on another computer and they all work fine, does anyone have any ideas as to what could be going on?
 
That's some "feature" built into certain mouse drivers, so when you accidentally move your mouse really fast it doesn't move the courser. Yes it's really bad and annoying. Try running some no-mouse-accell registry editor. Or use different drivers, or maybe you can disable it with a user option.
