Hi, recently, I've been having some random mouse lag, where the mouse cursor goes all jittery for a few minutes, and then goes back to normal. It normally happens when chrome it open, but then again, it's open 90% of the time I am actually using the PC.

Power isn't the problem, I have a 5960x running at 4GHZ, and a 980 Strix for graphics. All the Microsoft drivers are installed for the mouse.

The mouse is a Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000.

Thanks,
Harris Mirza

If you have another mouse, you can try using that one instead to see if it still happens. sometimes if the battery in the wireless mouse is low it can cause them to act weird. You can also try putting new batteries in it, see if that helps
