Why Wireless Mouse Pointer Is Shaking?

Wireless Mouse Pointer is the most popular Wireless Mouse. Wireless Mouse Pointer is an electronic device that controls the movement of a pointer on a display screen by sending signals to the screen with a small built-in transmitter. Wireless Mouse Pointer scanning rate is very high i.e it has the capability of sending 50 plus reports per second or even far more than that. Wireless Mouse Pointer works on batteries so there are always chances of power fluctuation which might cause Wireless Mouse Pointer to shake while working, turning off Wireless Mouse Pointer immediately and then again switching it on will fix this problem for you.

Wireless mice shake or move erratically when used for extensive periods of time while some wireless mouse only experience shaking during powering up after being turned off for multiple days.

If your Wireless Mouse Pointer becomes disabled after you installed new software or hardware remove it to see if this provides a temporary fix.

Avoid Using Near Other Electronic Devices

To avoid problems with your Wireless Mouse Pointer, avoid using it within 10 feet of any other office electronics such as cordless phones and speakers. If possible, turn off nearby electronic devices when using your mouse even if they are on different frequencies. Otherwise, reposition them away from your computer workstation so that they do not interfere with the functions of your wireless mouse.

Corrupted Program

If you recently updated your computer’s operating system, you may have a corrupted Windows Registry that is causing your wireless mouse to shake. You can fix this by going into "misconfiguration” and selecting the "start-up" tab. In the list of programs select each item after checking it off one at a time and reboot your computer by clicking on the restart button. This will determine if any of these programs are interfering with what you need to run on startup. If this does not work please contact our technical support department for further assistance.

Wireless Mouse Pointer Hardware Issue

Hardware issues are usually caused by problems with hardware or parts wearing down over time or due to liquid damage (from spilled drinks or other liquids). If you have recently dropped your Wireless Mouse Pointer or exposed it to liquids, this may be the cause of your problem. Shutting down and unplugging your device for a few moments before restarting it will often fix hardware issues caused by a momentary lapse in power. Before attempting any internal fixes to your Wireless Mouse Pointer, we recommend checking for simple software issues that could be causing your mouse not to function properly.

Wireless Mouse Pointer Software Issue

Mouse pointer shaking is usually due to a corrupt program interfering with how Windows is communicating with the mouse on startup or shutdown, but can also be due to a temporary system error. If you have recently updated your operating system or added new hardward devices onto your computer recently , this may be the cause of your problem. Shutting down and unplugging your device for a few moments before restarting it will often fix software issues caused by a momentary lapse in power. 

Mouse Sensitivity Too High In The Control Panel

Adjust the mouse sensitivity for your Wireless Mouse Pointer in the Windows control panel. Change the settings in the control panel and see if this makes a difference with how your wireless mouse is behaving. Please contact our technical support department if you need assistance with finding the correct setting in the Windows control panel that will affect how your Wireless Mouse Pointer is moving across your screen.

Trackpad Issue

If your Wireless Mouse Pointer is shaking only when you are using the trackpad on your computer, this is likely due to a temporary system error. Rebooting your device will fix this issue in most cases.

Graphic Card Issue

If you recently updated your video card drivers or integrated graphics chipset drivers, the problem may be with them and not directly related to system errors or Windows Registry issues. Uninstalling these software programs through "add/remove programs" and rebooting should fix any problems caused by graphic card issues. If you have an external display hooked up to your computer, try unplugging it to see if the mouse pointer shakes when moving over a blank screen. If so, then reattach or replace that display as it may be responsible for your computer problems.

Connection Issue

If the mouse pointer on your screen is shaking when you try to move it over certain areas of your desktop, it could be due to a network issue. Shutting down and unplugging your device for a few moments before restarting should fix this problem if it is caused by a temporary lapse in power or other issues that can be resolved with simple steps such as those listed above. If you believe there are other factors involved, we recommend checking with our technical support department for further assistance and clarification on how to resolve this issue and identify and eradicate its root cause.

Physical Damage

If the screen is visibly damaged or cracked, this can interfere with how Windows is communicating with your Wireless Mouse Pointer. Shutting down and unplugging your device for a few moments before restarting it will often resolve this issue if it is caused by a momentary lapse in power. If you have an external display hooked up to your computer, try unplugging it to see if the mouse pointer shakes when moving over a blank screen. If so, then reattach or replace that display as it may be responsible for your computer problems.

Poor Quality

Check to make sure you are using a quality wireless mouse from a reputable manufacturer. Cheap brands of Wireless Mouse Pointer often have incompatibility issues between the device and your computer, which can lead to software or hardware errors that cause this problem. Other wireless devices such as keyboards, trackballs, speakers, etc., may also be interfering with how Windows is communicating with your Wireless Mouse Pointer.

Shutting down and unplugging all of these devices for a few moments before restarting your computer will usually resolve any temporary power or system errors that could be causing this issue if they are the culprits. If this does not fix the problem then it may need to be resolved through deeper troubleshooting methods such as those listed above under "Internal Problems."

Internal Problems

The Wireless Mouse Pointer may be the source of your problem, and not an external device or system error. If you have installed a new USB port on your computer recently then this could be the cause of your issues due to improper installation that has led to these errors. You will want to check to make sure all drivers for devices attached through USB ports have been properly installed recently to reduce the risk of software-related errors causing this issue.

If you have recently added new hardware devices to your computer then these could be conflicting with how Windows is communicating with your Wireless Mouse Pointer as well. Shutting down and unplugging all hardware devices attached to your computer for a few moments before restarting it will resolve any temporary power or system errors that could be causing this issue if they are the culprits.

If this does not fix your problem, you may need to update your system drivers by visiting the manufacturers website for each of the devices attached to ensure their compatibility with Windows 10 first before trying any other troubleshooting steps listed above under "Internal Problems.If you have ruled out any external issues that could lead to this error message, then there are some internal problems with your Wireless Mouse Pointer device itself that need addressing.

This will vary from model to model so check with the manufacturer if possible, but one of the most common culprits is a failed LED which takes away from its ability to function normally. You can try using compressed air again and removing the LEDs circuit board entirely if needed before reassembling and testing it back outside of Windows 10. A faulty laser inside is another issue that can lead to this error message and you should ensure it is clean before trying again.

Battery Issue

For wireless Wireless Mouse Pointer users, a low battery could also be causing this issue. If you have an LED light on your mouse that is flashing when moving the pointer or not able to move it at all, then you likely have a dying battery issue. Try removing the batteries from your device for a few moments before replacing them and trying again to see if this resolves the problem. If so, consider buying a new pack of batteries as they were likely nearing their capacity and caused this issue due to insufficient power supply.

The Mouse Is Not Clean

If none of the above issues sound like they may be responsible for your problem, then it is likely that you need to clean your mouse. For optical or laser Wireless Mouse Pointer models, make sure you are cleaning them properly as the cleaning process is different for these two types of devices.

First try cleaning the outside of your device with a slightly damp cloth and wipe off any major dirt or dust particles that could be causing connection issues. If this does not resolve your issue then open up the device and remove the internal components which should include: a rubberized ball (if present), screws (keep track of where each one came from as they vary between models), and circuit boards.

You can use compressed air to carefully blow out any debris inside before wiping down the components with a soft, dry cloth to remove any larger pieces of dirt. For ball models in particular, you will want to clean out each of the small rollers using rubbing alcohol and cotton swabs before reassembling your Wireless Mouse Pointer.

Bad Surface

It is also possible that the surface you are using your device on may be interfering with its ability to properly communicate with Windows 10. If you have a microsoft wireless mouse, try changing the overall surface it is sitting on before trying any other troubleshooting steps listed above under "Internal Problems." You should also check for damage done to the mouse after extended use that may have led to overheating issues which could cause these problems.

External USB Cable Issue Your Wireless Mouse Pointer may not be able to receive enough power through its wireless connection if your cable or connector is damaged so look for signs of this being an issue first before moving forward. If there are any visible cuts in the cord or it fails when plugging into an extension cable then it needs to be replaced before your problem can be resolved. If this is not the issue then it may be a bad USB port on your computer which needs to be checked or replaced in order for your mouse to receive power properly.

Wireless Mouse Pointer Not Compatible

Finally, you may need to update your device’s software if it has stopped working on Windows 10 completely and no other troubleshooting steps seem to work. Go online and download the latest drivers for your Wireless Mouse Pointer model and install them on Windows 10 one at a time by following Microsoft’s instructions carefully. Test each driver as you go along until they all have been installed correctly and see if this resolves the problem without any further issues arising during use. This will likely be the most difficult fix of them all but finding out which driver fixed it for someone else can save a lot of time and frustration.
