Hello, i seem to have an issue with my mouse. Obviously. Whenever i hold my left or right mouse button and scroll, it doesnt register until after a few scrolls. I noticed this when i was playing Garry's Mod, because a certain tool needs the the left button and scroll wheel to work in unison, but it wouldnt work. it scrolls just fine, like, it doesnt feel hesitant or anything. I noticed however, that when i hold the left button, then scroll, and then release, it immediately scrolls to wherever it would have gone at once. Like it cant multitask.
 
Does this happen if you use another mouse as well? If not and it is only a particular mouse...it may be faulty. The one thing you could try is go to device manager and right click to uninstall the problematic mouse. Then uplug it and restart windows. Then plug mouse in. This will download latest driver for the mouse. This is only if this is happening with ONE certain mouse though.
