Possible solutions

Resolving cursor issues

1. 

In wired mode, connect the USB 

charging cable to another USB 

port. Wait until a notification 

appears indicating that the driver 

installation is complete before you 

use the mouse.

2. 

In 2.4GHz wireless mode, connect 

the USB wireless dongle to another 

USB port or connect the USB 

wireless dongle and USB charging 

cable to the dongle extender. 

Wait until a notification appears 

indicating that the driver installation 

is complete before you use the 

mouse.

3. 

Ensure that the sensor is not 

obstructed or dirty.

4. 

Glass or very smooth glossy surfaces 

are not suitable for the mouse 

sensor to capture movement. Using 

a dark colored fabric mouse pad 

can improve the tracking.

5. 

Save any data, close any open 

program(s), and then restart the 

laptop/desktop. When you do not 

have another mouse or touchscreen, 

hold the power button down for at 

least 15 seconds to turn the laptop/

desktop off. All unsaved data will 

be lost.
