Windows XP Service Pack 2 - The mouse moves by itself after installing SP2

November 27, 2013
Updated: December 6, 2021
Quick overview:

Sie blicken einige Sekunden auf Ihren Bildschirm und stellen fest, dass eine Geisterhand die Maus packt und von alleine bewegt? Haben Sie keine Angst - dies tritt in den meisten Fällen nach dem Service Pack 2 auf. Bitte schließen Sie vorher allerdings Spyware, Würmer und Co.< komplett aus, da auch diese Faktoren zu solch Horrorerlebnissen führen. Öffnen Sie zur Lösung des Problems die Systemsteuerung und doppelklicken Sie auf Maus. Wechseln Sie auf die Registerkarte Zeigeroptionen und deaktivieren Sie die Zeigerbeschleunigung. Da die Maus nun etwas träge reagiert, sollten Sie mittels einer höheren Geschwindigkeit kompensieren.

Check mouse settings

Bitte halten Sie auf der Herstellerseite Ihrer Maus Ausschau nach den aktuellsten Treibern, damit Sie dieses Problem auch ohne den Umweg mit der Zeigerbeschleunigung beheben können.

NOTE FOR NEW PUBLICATION: This article was produced by Sandro Villinger and comes from the Windows Tweaks archive, which has been built up since the late 1990s.

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
