Can anyone help me with a gaming mouse problem?

[Juanfro]

Hi!

My mouse has started to behave weird with some games (The witcher or Darksider por example). Each time I move the camera with the mouse or even when moving the cursor in a menu my frames per second drop dramatically making the game unplayable.

With some other games there is no problem (KSP, Assassin's Creed III, Planetside 2...)

I've read something about similar problems related to Steam mouse input, how can I check it?

This happens only with one mouse, a Trust GTX25, I've tried with an older one and everything was fine.

What can be causing the problem?

Any suggestion?

Thank you.

It could be the drivers are conflicting with some of the game files. Try updating the mouse drivers, or if there are any settings other than laser movement, left/right/centre click and scroll wheel, try disabling them. On one of my mice (the one I use for gaming) I have a small button next to the scroll wheel, and I have it set to middle click (the wheel is hard to push in *THAT'S WHAT SHE SAI-!*) and it sometimes doesn't register, so I disable it.
