My wireless mouse stutters and lags but my touchpad on the same laptop works fine. What is going on?

As the title describes, I'm having a mouse lag problem (which has cropped up many times on the web but never actually fixed in any of the threads).

I think it is a hardware issue since my touchpad works just fine but my mouse suttters and lags. What is crazy though is that the mouse works fine on my Linux boot but not my Win7.

Update: I tried another wireless mouse and it worked fine. I think this might actually be a hardware compatibility issue.
