My mouse is acting up. Sometime it will jump a little bit for no reason. Any idea on whats causing this? Same behavior was exhibited on another mouse I tried

Could it be a os issue or something like the mousepad you think?

I had exactly the same thing happening to me, especially while doing mouse intensive tasks like graphic design or even playing games. Eventually it turned out my wireless signal was messing with the mouses bluetooth signal.

What sort of mouse do you have? And on what setup?
