Hi,
I have recently got this problem. Every time I move my mouse on top of a program, i.e, steam or chrome, msn messenger, that program starts using up the CPU. If I move my mouse on top of steam, steam starts using like 40% of my cpu, sometimes even 50%. It depends how fast I move my mouse on top of the program, the faster I move the more CPU it uses. When I don't move the mouse its calm around 1% or 0%. I have tried everything I could, read all the forums blah blah. I reinstalled another copy of Windows Xp as well as Windows 7, the problem still occurred. I bought the thermal compound and used it on top my CPU that reduced the temperature of my CPU which was good but that still did not solve the problem. Even drivers I updated it all of them using driver checker.
My mouse is DeathAdder 1800DPI, I currently use the 3.01 driver and 1.36 firmware and below I will post my computer spec. Someone please help me I have been trying to fix this for the past week.
