Question

Mouse

Apr 24, 2017 5:35AM PDT

OK my ASUS Windows 10 is having a fit. The mouse slash cusor is playing up. When I first turn on everything is OK, then after a couple of minutes the cursor stops moving with the mouse, or is extremely slow and stops and starts. It is driving mad especially when I run off the mouse pad.

Just A Thought... Have You Changed the Mouse Battery Lately?

If you're using a USB mouse, they have a battery inside that tends to die eventually. Try replacing the battery inside.

Hope this helps.
