    Mouse stuttering problem only in few older games on Windows 10 x64


    Hello everyone!
    I have very strange problem that im trying to fix since few months. The problem is that my mouse works perfectly in most games on Win10 x64 (even older ones if i disable acceleration), however it keeps stuttering in few older games, such as Call of Duty 2, SiN Episodes: Emergence, Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi.
    The mouse stutters only when i move it very slowly on the mousepad, if i move it fastly it seems to work smoothly with no stutter, however it's very annoyning and makes those few games completely unplayable, because it's hard to shot enemies.

    I didn't have this issue on Windows 8.1 x64 and Windows 7 x64 (i was using the same mouse as im using right now). Do you have any idea what could be cause of that?


    My PC Specs:
    OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise x64
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P67A-D3-B3
    CPU: Intel Core i7 2600k @ 4,5 GHz
    GPU: Gigabyte GTX 980 4GB GDDR5 Xtreme Gaming OC
    Memory: Kingston HyperX Blue 2x4(8)GB DDR3 1600 Mhz
    HDD: Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 (2TB, 64MB, SATA/600)
    Sound Card: Asus Xonar DX
    Headphones: Sennheiser HD 380 Pro
    Mouse: Logitech G500s


    Sorry for grammar errors, English is not my native language. :)

    Hello and welcome Szymek have you checked to see if all the drivers are up to date for that mouse. I had a similar problem with my Blu tooth mice and it was just a matter of reinstalling the drivers and re-adding the devices.

    Have you altered the mouse settings in the Control Panel?? I always use a large system cursor, fast movement, slow click rate and two space wheel scroll - maybe worth setting yours to the same and trying that.

    Maybe obvious but try changing the battery too and cleaning the lens with a cotton bud with some alcohol on it

    Hey, yes, my drivers are up to date, I have also updated my mouse firmware long time ago. I didn't alter any settings in control panel, i was even trying to fully format my HDD and install Windows 10 again - same problem. As i said, this problem occurs only in few older games, it doesn't happen in most games that i play. My mouse doesn't have batteries - it's usb cable mouse, not wireless one.
    My guess is that there is some hidden setting in Windows 10 that is forcing mouse acceleration in those older games, i didn't have this problem on Windows 8.1, it only started happening on Windows 10.

    Well I am inclined to think you are right with the games not being absolutely compatible with 10. The mouse settings as far as I know are very similar to what one could set in 7 and 8 and I wouldn't think there would be any that one could not control.

    I suppose if one were a programmer then it could searched for in the reg entries but to be honest that would be an awful amount of work. I don't suppose you have tried looking for any updates on those games?? - not that I know much about how that works as I do not game very much myself.
