#

thanks for posting 🙂 let me know, and if you can add more information?

#

i have restarted my pc

#

no hair is on the mouse

#

It happened beforehand a month or so ago

#

i thought it was in game only but it’s also on my desktop

#

do you use the same mouse?

#

or same surface? when gaming?

#

on both laptop / desktop

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:12 AM

#

Yes

#

i use the super light

#

tried it with my orochi v2 and same shit :(

#

do you got a mouse mat?

#

desktop surfaces without mat can react sometimes pretty weird

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:14 AM

#

i have an artisan mousepad

#

and it’s worked perfectly i’ve tried other surfaces i know my mouse doesn’t stutter on and same deal

#

well you could decrease the mouse polling rate?

#

and see if that improves the stuttering?

#

if your mouse polls too much it can be reacting weird inside the game 🤔 and even just keep the processor busy with just polling your mouse

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:16 AM

#

i decreased from 1000 to 500 and same deal

#

it affects framerate aswell at times which i find really weird

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:17 AM

#

the stuttering?

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:17 AM

#

yes

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:18 AM

#

what temps do you have on CPU / GPU when its happening?
CPU usage full? (one core full?) Memory usage full?
any other programs runnning?

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:19 AM

#

both sitting around 50-60c

#

cpu usage and ram usage around 70% which is normal under load

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:20 AM

#

but one core?

#

for example one core is here busy rendering my youtube and the rest is basically sleepping

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:22 AM

#

what program would let me see

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:22 AM

#

taskmgr

#

2nd mouse button on it

#

and check logical cores

#

"change graph to " -> logical processors.

#

Overal utilisations says nothing 😦

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:28 AM

#

#

i reinstalled mouse drivers (ones in device manager) so ill lyk if anything has changed

#

same shit

#

could it be related to a virus potentially

#

because my vanguard just crashed

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:37 AM

#

oh malwarebytes

#

and run windows defender

#

check with a virusscanner 🤷‍♂️

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:38 AM

#

i did a quick scan on defender and it found nothing

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 2:40 AM

#

do a thorough scan.

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:41 AM

#

kk

#

how many detections on malwarebytes is considered very bad

bitter socket Apr 30, 2023, 2:45 AM

#

more than 0

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:46 AM

#

bitter socket Apr 30, 2023, 2:47 AM

#

yeah those should be removed

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:47 AM

#

okay

#

does quarantining files remove ?

bitter socket Apr 30, 2023, 2:48 AM

#

im not sure

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 2:49 AM

#

you have to do it manually ok

#

files were removed

#

still stuttering though

#

i dont know what else to do

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 3:03 AM

#

msconfig - > Services -> hide all microsoft services

#

uncheck what you dont need and keep it clean

#

same with startup on tasskmgr , remove what you do not need

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 3:15 AM

#

theres time where it is fine

#

im finding its stuttering when im testing it in games

#

and then it stutters for a couple mins after closing

#

and then its good again

#

i just blew the sensor out with compressed air and nothing still

#

im just mass uninstalling shit i dont need atm

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 4:01 AM

#

i give up

#

msconfig will take way too long and i doubt it will do anything

#

i have no idea what else to do

crimson isle Apr 30, 2023, 10:06 AM

#

msconfig -> Services -> check all microsoft services. checkbox on and just hide all.

flat vapor Apr 30, 2023, 5:12 PM

#

so it stopped on its own

#

im in game now and it does it rarely
