Windows 8.1 causes mousing issues; fix incoming - The Tech Report

1. Mouse jitters (jumps forward and back) as you move it through a game ? This occurs in some games because Windows 8.1 handles the games' checks for the mouse status differently.

2. Mouse movement is not to scale even after acceleration is turned off ? If you have turned off acceleration to make the distance on the screen match the distance you move the mouse, that may not work correctly anymore.


3. Measured mouse Polling Rate has a lower reporting frequency than expected ? If you have a gaming mouse that has a high frequency, when you test it, you may find it is reporting a lower frequency than you expect.

I haven't really had an issue with BF4 but then again mouse control is always an issue for me.
 
I guess that would be a nice fix, but I can't even get Win 8.1 updates since I upgraded. I get an obscure error code that I can't find in Microsoft support docs. Why the fuck do you give me an error code that hasn't had data released on yet, much less how to fix it?
