Moving mouse brings computer to a crawl

Postby SheepCow » 21.01.2014 10:31:47

Since I updated to 1.6.11.2394 (not 100% sure what version I was on before that, it may have been a couple old) - whenever I move the mouse my computer grinds to a halt. E.g., normally when moving the mouse over the icons in the task bar they are highlighted as I move over them. With Dexpot loaded they don't highlight until I stop moving the mouse. Also scrolling in Word, Chrome etc doesn't take effect if I'm moving the mouse at the same time; when I stop moving the mouse it does all the scrolling at once.

If I quit Dexpot everything goes back to normal, any ideas?

:dex:

Do you use the MouseEvents plugin? Is Dexpot running as administrator?

The only plugin I'm using is Dexcube and it wasn't running as admin. I've just launched it now and it appears to be working as expected.

The only thing I can guess is something else was doing it or maybe I got a Windows/driver update last night without noticing!
