Hi

So im having a issue with my mouse cursor lagging/stuttering for a few seconds randomly does not happen a lot but it does happen and only lasts for a few seconds so far not been watching a video ir playing a game when it happens so cant see if other tasks continue as normal when it happens

Updated graphics card drivers and checked windows update & it says no updates available.

I have the following hardware on my PC

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics

Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 TI

Motherboard:

Base board manufacturer: HP

Baseboard Product 8876

Baseboard Version 11

BIOS Version/Date: AMI F,11, 27/08/2021

    So rather accidentally I've resolved my issue ...for now ... so far. I just put together a new rig (MB, CPU memory), and after Windows 11 making me re-activate, some settings seemed to revert to default. When I changed Power settings to Ryzen Performance my mouse became nearly unusable with stutter, leaping across the screen, etc. Changed Power back to Balanced and all is well. Makes no sense...Ryzen 7 - 7700X (8 core, 16 threads), 32G memory, 850W power supply. Something in the Windows 11 Insider - Dev build is screwy. Just part of the fun I signed up for! LOL. 😉😅

    Thank you for posting this!! I know your post is a few months old, but I have been searching for 2 weeks for a solution to this problem. It seems to have started after a Windows 11 update a few weeks ago.

    I bought a new Logitech mouse and a mouse pad, thinking that would help. It didn't.

    My mouse is set for left-handed use, and the PC is on the right-hand side, on my desk. I just changed the dongle from a port in the back to one of the front ports. It made an immediate difference, though I don't know how long it will last.

    For me, changing the power mode from "Best performance" back to "Recommended" seems to have solved the issue for me! So, let's hope the "LAG NAG" doesn't kick in again. Thanks for the pointer to a solution... for me at least.

    Incredibly, this has also worked for me. Bizarre, but thanks for sharing. It eliminated the mouse lag the instant I changed to power settings in the Control Panel (to Recommended). This surely can't be right, but it has worked!

    I have a Razor Basilisk X Hyperspeed, very similar to this one and the jitter happens every once in a while.

    I suspect of DNS requests made by some application.
