I've been having this problem for the past couple of months and it's driving me insane. I've searched for hours on end without any luck of a fix.

The problem is that my mouse lags (or stutters) every 5 seconds. The lag can sometimes be so bad that the mouse completely stops working for a few seconds.

I've gone through 3 mice and they've all had the same problem so it can't be because of the mouse.

The mouse I'm currently using is the Logitech Anywhere MX.

Please help me, this is driving me insane!

Thanks,
Feriscool. :)

Are you using a powered USB hub? I had similar issue with this and it was a bad USB transformer.

No, I'm not using a USB hub and I'd rather not as it's just extra hardware. I do have 6 USB ports though.

Just tried that and it didn't work. :confused:

have you tried using it as close as possible to the USB receiver?

It seems to be a little better, but I'm literally 2 feet from the receiver normally.
I know what you mean.

My logitech can get a little stupid at times even though my mouse is never more than one feet away from the USB port the receiver is plugged into.

The smallest, and silliest thing you can think of can block the signal from the mouse to the receiver, causing it to lag.

The only thing that's in the way of the path is my desk.

And I suppose you've plugged the receiver into all of the USB ports as well.
