Mousing Hangs Win 10

[Spudbilly]

Hello,

 

My whole system hangs every 2ish seconds. It affects the mouse movement, typing, youtube video playback. Everything stalls for a split second every couple seconds. Yesterday there were zero issues. I came home and my wife had some Photoshop projects open, but she did not complain about anything. I did the latest Win 10 update and AMD Adrenaline update. I am trying out updating all of my drivers for everything I can update possible (i.e. chipset etc...)

 

I have tried uninstalling the mouse and keyboard drivers and reinstalling. The internet suggests some registry edits, but I feel that is a bit dramatic and will likely mess my PC up :0

 

Any thoughts or ideas. I will edit post if updating drivers works. This system hang is aweful though, and I am really wanting to avoid a full system reinstall. I am also hoping it is not hardware failing. 

 

Thanks in advance

This is probably what caused your problem. Try rolling back or reinstalling the gpu driver.

-edit-

also you may want to do this in safe mode, it most likely won't freeze

It was the amd graphics driver. Reinstalled driver and bam. Success. 

 

Thanks @Sauron for your help.
