    Hello, I've had this problem way to long now and I have no idea how to fix it.

    My problem is that my touchpad runs perfectly smooth but when I use my mouse(on a smooth mousepad) it moves choppy so I am not able to draw straight lines, nor aim properly in -ANY- game at all.

    If you look on the picture bellow, you'll see me trying to do straight lines downwards, the one on the left side is with the touchpad and the one on the right side is the mouse one.

    The things I've tried is the following:
    • Changing mouse
    • Changing mousepad
    • Tried different USB ports
    • Drivers
    Please, help me.

    Thank you.
