annoying mouse problem (g400)

by ohurcool • 2 Sep 2011, 14:16 • Journals
Hey, Europe Crossfire!

I recently purchased the Logitech G400 mouse, hoping to replace my worn-out MX518 with a newer model. However, I've been experiencing some problems with the mouse. It works perfectly fine outside of ET, but when I'm in-game, SOME WEIRD SHIT BE GOIN' ON. My sensitivity feels like it's been doubled (or even tripled), and my mouse will sometimes jump across the screen. I haven't made any changes to the mouse, and I'm not using the shitty Logitech software that comes with it. I'm running Windows 7 with acceleration turned off both @ Windows and @ ET.

Anyone know how to fix this? :( IT'S QUITE THE NUISANCE!

Accelfix? USB Rate?

I've already ran AccelFix in the past for my MX518, and I'm using the default polling rate - 500 hz.

Off to school now, so won't be able to reply for a bit. :p

1000hz is the default hz for G400, you shouldn't change

I've found that SetPoint did more harm than good for my MX518, and the mouse worked fine without it.. why should I have to use it for the G400? (Not flaming, I appreciate the help. Just wondering what the advantage of using the software is as opposed to not using it.)

On my g9 the software works fine, and I don't see any reason to not use the dedicated software for a certian hardware.

Maybe I'm not explaining it properly.. but it's not the sensitivity which is the problem, I can deal with that obviously by changing numbers around. When I move the mouse, it feels like it's accelerating/jumping/bouncing across the screen.. it's not smooth at all.

Then i suggest you install the drivers which are needed for the G400 (its not setpoint,its called "Logitech gaming software" which will hopefully solve your problem ;)

ps: I had the same feeling in the beginning that it was accelerating etc, it stopped when I installed that software.

try rinput

ohurcool 2 Sep 2011, 19:44
I've already run MarkC_Windows7_MouseFix in the past for my MX518, which does the same thing as RInput, right? Or do I have to use it again because I got a new mouse :D?

try switching the usb ports
try re-installing the drivers
try installint the drivers but changing the settings, dpi, ghz, etc
try it on another computer if you do have it (different O/S)
because a friend of mine had the simmilar problem.. so he followed these steps and got it to work but idk anything else :p
