Processor scrolling gets really slow sometimes when I start from sleep

ironfist · 27 May 2020

I thought it was a Firefox problem because Firefox scrolling gets slow when this happens, like I scroll and it slightly moves. I can adjust the settings in Firefox to change this, however then when I turn on my computer again, it's really fast, so then I have to undo it.

But then, I realized it might be a windows problem, because the task bar menu scrolling is slow, too. I checked the scroll settings and nothing has changed. So, I can make it faster, but then when I activate windows again, it's too fast, and I have to set it back.

What is happening while the computer is asleep that makes this happen?

I mean the wheels scrolling.

It's an ASUS laptop. Do they have applications that overlay normal scrolling?

I have had a similar issue when I used a Microsoft mouse. Microsoft installed an official application to control it that messed up with mouse scrolling significantly . So see if you have that or any other 3rd party mice control panels you can remove .

I have a Microsoft Intellimouse 3000. Previous to this I had a different Microsoft mouse. I don't think any drivers were installed. Here's what I located:

Then I thought I had fixed this by unplugging and plugging the mouse back in, but that doesn't seem to work anymore, still, this would not be a fix, simply a workaround.
