need help, strange freeze and cursor
So my computer was working fine for the past 3 years, and now this problem just suddenly happened
Running on core i7 950, 12gb ram, 2TB harddisk, nvidia gforce 450 display card
So my problem only occurred recently and also quite randomly, Im not sure what triggered it, but sometimes and completely unpredictably, my cursor will not display the correct icon when hovering over something and also the cursor will not be where im actually pointing, then my computer will freeze periodically, like every minute it freezes for 5-10 seconds
its something to do with the mouse and starting new programs, Im actually typing this under this cursor freeze situation, no freeze so far when im only typing, but insta freeze when i try to move my mouse or start new programs
I dont see any suspicious activity in my task manager
Tried to use ccleaner, didnt help
Did a SFC /scannow, no corruption found, and didnt solve the problem
Done around a dozen scans using malwarebyte and notable online scanners (eg. eset) no virus found
Can't seem to find any errors in the windows event viewer
The only recent change I made to my computer is that I changed my internet from a using a lan line to a wifi, another thing i noticed though, is that this seems to occur mostly when im using firefox, I played skyrim for 6 hours yesterday and this freeze problem did not occur
Im usually able to find out what is happening using event viewer and process explorer, but this time I have no idea what is going on
please help
