Windows 10 spastic mouse pointer
Today my mouse pointer is constantly switching between normal select and busy/working in background. Back and forth, back and forth. I look at the task manager but don't have a clue what's going on. Any ideas?

Using a Logi Cordless Optical Trackman. Switching to a hardwired Logi mouse, no change.

In Task Manager, if you click on CPU to sort, any programs with high CPU utilization?

There seems to be a good number of reports regarding Win 10 CPU spiking issues.

My symptoms are: I'm typing and then it stalls in showing the letters I type.

Unfortunately, the problems and fixes reported are regarding gaming systems plus the fixes aren't that reliable it seems.


"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

That type of thing happens to me on rare occasions. Usually very short in nature and I just ignore it. Just a very small nuisance.

I've had slow response to typing time to time.
This stuff today made getting anything done annoying but a restart cleared things up. I forgot to look at CPU usage in the task manager, I'll remember if the problem shows up again. Thanks all.
