| 429349 | 2006-02-11 20:44:00 | I noticed that if I ever keep moving my mouse in a circle, I see that it keeps jumping or skipping. It's not just my mouse because I've been playing the game Counter Strike and some other games and the screen just keeps skipping every 1 or 2 seconds which affects my gameplay. Is this because I have too many processes running at once? Because I try to stop some processes sometimes and it doesn't seem to help much. I really need some help to get rid of this skipping! I have a Dell Dimension 8200 pentium 4 windows XP GeForce2 MX/MX 400 (graphics card) |

| 429351 | 2006-02-11 23:32:00 | Look at resources tab in Task manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del), see what % your CPU is running. It's possibly your system is full of adware/spyware etc and just plain bogged down, the description you give suggests that the CPU time could be the problem. |

| 429354 | 2006-02-12 00:43:00 | Once again.. It's not my mouse. When I am playing a game like Counter Strike where I'm just walking forward, I'm still skipping, it's not because of my mouse. | Archee (9788) | ||

When I am playing a game like Counter Strike where I'm just walking forward, I'm still skipping, it's not because of my mouse. you didn't say it happened with your keyboard as well. where not mind readers (well mayby GF with his crystall ball) so you have to tell us. i take it happens in ALL programs not just games or desktop ? what antivirus are you running? done a full scan (scan all files)? anything werid trying to get past your firewall? scanned with anti spyware? you can post a hijackthis log if you like so others can have a look. has the pc always done this? anything major done to the pc? updgrades, XP reinstalls? |
