Interference of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction (ECC) latencies like a bad modem connection, except internally in a circuit. ECC = retransmits = lag. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI.

Re: NEW PC and MOUSE and ONLY using the PC late at night
Unfortunately i don’t have the opportunity to do that right now, but what i’ve seen is that my phone is smoother outside the house than inside the house. I highly suspect that this is placebo though so don’t take me too seriously on this.dervu wrote: ↑14 Jun 2026, 04:27Take your hardware to some place where there are no issues at all.

Re: NEW PC and MOUSE and ONLY using the PC late at night
OMG GUYS! SEMI GOOD NEWS! So I completely reinstalled windows 11 with a USB and made a local account instead of signing in with Microsoft and the mouse movement actually improved A LOT. It’s still not perfect but the movement has gotten wayyy wayyy better. For the first time ever i am getting close to perfect sensor performance… EVER. It’s still not perfect though, now I’m wondering if the mouse movement will improve if i connect to the internet, update windows, update drivers, tweak pc and mouse settings and install mouse software or if the mouse movement will get worse or stay the same. I’ll do some more testing soon and let you guys know what happens next.

Nooo no no no no. You just have to believe. GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION, you have to try silly thing that comes to your mind until something works. Eventually you WILL find your fix, it just requires a lot. I know for sure that my issue is software related because the sensor never improved with any EMI filter nor hardware change, it only improved after reinstalling windows with a local account instead of a Microsoft account. Basically my theory is that Microsoft’s cloud syncing feature causes some interference with the mouse since your PC data is being sent to them and then back. When you use a local account instead of a microsoft account, no syncing is happening and whatever data is on your PC stays on your PC, which means that your mouse only gets data from your PC, not your PC and Microsoft’s cloud/data centers.

these software tweaks will do absollutely nothing.
There are only 2 working options:
1) Get rid of high-frequency interference in an electrical circuit
2) Use your mouse with rigid, well-shielded usb cable. (not that cheap non shielded crap that Chinese gaming mouse manufactures call "paracord").
Good luck. And stop tweaking your registry already. There is only one more or less impactful registry tweak "win32separation"

Re: NEW PC and MOUSE and ONLY using the PC late at night
Update #2 so after updating all of the windows drivers to the latest drivers, the issue came back. So this is definitely a driver issue, i just have to figure out which exact driver is causing the issue and then roll back the driver.
