Okay, I've disconnected the speakers.

Just experienced a bit of lag. And the speakers were unplugged.

How about run msconfig and in the service tab, hide all MS services then disable the rest. Also, disable the startup items, reboot your PC.

I've just done that and I was welcomed with more lag.

It seems to happen more when I'm loading multiple pages in Firefox. Every time I boot up my computer I start up Firefox and load about 4 or 5 different forums and a couple other pages all in different tabs

Have you updated Firefox 33 and Flash Player ? And to isolate the problem, you might want to download: ShellExView - Shell Extension Manager For Windows and disable all non MS extensions, it might seem irrelevant but sometimes the shell extensions can create lagging problem. Also, any add-ons that you might have installed in the browser.

I'll give that a go.

Have you tried moving the mouse closer to your computer? Is the usb transceiver in the back or front? If in the back try moving it to the front. I find interference is a common problem with wireless mice, particularly in the 2.4Ghz range (one reason I use 5Ghz networking, and don't use cordless phones or other 2.4Ghz spectrum devices).

It's in the back, I'll move it to the front. :)

Chuck... when the mouse lags are you seeing any HDD activity ? You may just be a bit low on resources for everything to keep up. Does task manager show any high CPU/Disk usage when the mouse lags.

No, I hardly ever have any high CPU/ Disk usage.

Thanks for helping me guys! I'm sure we'll figure this out! :)

I would also suggest to make sure you are using USB 2.0 and not 3.0.
