    I just installed the windows game receiver and I noticed it this morning. The mouse drifts upward when not being touched. I just got the laptop three days ago...

    This is a problem that is typically seen when gamepads are connected as well. In this case the gamepads need to be calibrated. Do you have any gamepads connected to your laptop?

    If you're using drivers that came with the joytech, try unnstalling them and let windows assign its own.
