mrchetsteadman Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 So I love the MX Master Series. I love it so much that I have 3 of them and yes I know I can use one mouse for 3 machines lol. Long story. But recently after reformatting my PC, the MX Master lags a ton. It used to lag only when I had a USB drive in the front IO port but now it lags all the time. Before I go waste money on a new mouse, how do I fix this extremely annoying issue? Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason S. Global Moderator Posted February 18, 2021 Global Moderator Share Posted February 18, 2021 is there some specific driver that needs to be installed? mrchetsteadman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disabled the Intel Wireless Bluetooth driver because when I install that one, the Realtek Bluetooth Adapter stops working and so does the mouse even though it's connected by a unified adapter.

Mindovermaster Moderator Posted February 18, 2021 Moderator Share Posted February 18, 2021 Try a different USB slot on the front IO. Could be the USB slot is bad. Is it only one mouse that is lagging? Could be the adapter is bad. mrchetsteadman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astra.Xtreme Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 The unified adapter is different than the bluetooth connection, isn't it? Looks like the mouse is connected via bluetooth, so maybe those 2 connections are stepping over each other. Disable the MX Master 3 bluetooth, if you can. mrchetsteadman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went and got another unified adapter and as soon as I plugged it in, everything came to life. Then I got a notification to update my mouse and keyboard which finished quickly and now everything is running smoothly. So I am guessing the unified adapter was faulty. Thank you very much! 15 years later and y'all are STILL the go to for help. Astra.Xtreme and Brandon H 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mortecha Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I had the same problem, replaced my MX Master 2 with an MX Master 3 and have been experiencing some really bad lagginess wile browsing and playing games. However I have noticed that every USB port that I have tried with is was either blue or black but not the red that matches the color found inside the Bluetooth USB connector. I have one such red USB connector on my mother and when I inserted the Bluetooth receiver in it, all of the problems with lag disappeared immediately. Not all USB ports are the same it seems.

Color is coincidental in this case. You moved to a different usb controller on your machine. That appears to be what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VEGANO Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Ty guys. It also worked for me. I switch it to the blue usb port and now my mouse is working just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
