Slow Mouse, Win 10,

[coppens1]

Dear HP Support, I Installed Windows 10 on my HP Netbook. The Netbooks specifications are:

HP Netbook, Intel Atom CPU N455 1.66 Ghz, 2.0 GB Ram, ReadyBoost Cache 1.8 GB, 32 bits, Windows 7 Starter, Primary Hard drive 214 GB, Secondary Hard drive N/A

The problem I have is slow optical mouse pointer speed. I have reset the speed at maximum, but the mouse pointer lags. I tried using the touch pad but same problem. The problem might be the mouse driver but I don't know where to get an update. What is the solution?

My reply may not make you happy but with a machine likes that it will slow down everything. How much spare room on its HDD ?

What is it ?  Please use the following way to find out the model/product of your machine

For security reason, please do NOT post its Serial number (s/n) on Internet.

Dear Banhien, thanks for your reply.  The Netbook Model no is HP G60-23OUS .  The hard drive is only about 30% used, maybe 60 GB. 

I keep all my data files on flash drives so I can move from computer to computer. 

I use this little machine as follows:  1  notepad 2.  OpenOffice spreadsheets,  3.  Windows Media Player. 4.  Search 

I hate to go back to Windows 7 but it was faster in W 7.  I had no problems with mouse, or hibernate using Win 7.

Dear Banhien,sorry I didn't answer sooner.  I was preoccupied with a power on/hiberante problem wiith the computer.  Finally after several Windows 10 updates, the problem finally cleared up.

Your first question:  "How much spare room on its HDD ?"   On my HDD (Hard Disk Drive)  I have:   Primary Hard drive 214 GB used 85GB 40%, unused 129 GB 60%

Your second questino:  What is it ?   Here's all the info:  

HP Netbook G60-23OUS Model HP Mini 110-3530NR
Intel Atom CPU N455 1.66 Ghz 2.0 GB Ram Upgrade
ReadyBoost Cache 3.9 GB
32 bits

Primary Hard drive 214 GB used 85GB 40%, unused 129 GB 60%

That is an ancient machine. F from my memory it could be around 12-13 years old by now. My daughter did have a similar machine to work in Tokyo around 2008. She kept saying it tooooooooooooo slow, I gave her my Dell XPS 13 at that time.

Anyway, you say its mouse is slow. Well, what do you expect for a machine like that to run Windows 10 ? I would change its mechanical HDD to SSD, this may help a bit.

Regards.

Banheim 100122 Netbook, Mouse

Dear Mr. Banheim, thank you for your reply.

I use the netbook only for 3 simple applications:
1. Windows Media Player
2. Notepad
3. Open Office Spreadsheet

I like the Netbook because of the small footprint on my desk.

I upgraded it from Win 7 to Win 10 to enhance it, but also as an experiment to see what problems I would have, as I have an HP G690-23OUS Notebook, a much more robust machine, that I plan to upgrade from Win 7 to 10 in the future. But that is a different subject.

I have some expertise in computers, but not heavy.

Mr. Banheim, you seem to have a lot of expertise in HP computers. Can you explain to me in layman's terms why my mouse would slow down considerable when I changed my netbook from Win 7 to Win 10? It worked perfectly before.
