Hey


I don't know why but my mouse keeps flickering every few seconds. I have the latest driver and my OS is a fresh install... I don't really know how to debug the problem to find the cause?

Turns out i found the program that was causing it, so this thread can be deleted!

What was causing it so that others with the same issue could check that as well? :)

It was caused by a bug in open broadcaster software , an update to the software solved it.

We just had an issue here with Microsoft Word 2010 in Windows 7 Pro. Mouse kept showing busy version of the icon. Turned out it had something to do with the default Printer. Changed to a different default printer and the mouse issue went away. In search of a more permanent fix, I removed the (faulty) printer device and then re-installed the thing.

Seems to have fixed the problem.

Best Wishes,
Rªnce
