Hi,

My mouse jumps up and down once in a while while I play. I dont know if it happens while I dont play but its easy to notice in games, well I suddnely see the sky or the floor so pretty easy to spot.

Anyway I can fix it? It really driving me crazy

 

Thank you very much

There's actually few things which can be happening.

1) Prank. Like someone is using wireless mouse/controller/kb without you knowing.

2) Dirty mouse sensor, mousepad. Dirt in sensor gives false readings and show as jumping.

3) Driver issue. Rare but driver might have bug which effects on polling rate.

4) Sensitivity and acceleration. Too high sensitivity in Windows or Game could do that. Or having hardware acceleration enabled.

It moves so fast, even instant, that it doesnt look like a mouse movement, definitley not a prank or too high sensitivity.

The sensor and the pad are very clean.

I thought it was more of a windows problem or something, I know I might sound stupid to think that, but I tried with a different mouse and it worked just fine. they are both Logitech so same driver here
