In game Mouse click Flicker / Desktop show

[悪夢 FaitcH ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

It only started last week for some unknown reason, every time i play a game (most of them), no matter fullscreen / windowed or borderless, every time i mouse click, the screen does a weird flickering and if i click a couple times in a row, it either minimize or close the game.
I can play no problem with my controller but as soon as mouse click is involved, weird things happened.

I've been trying to find some help all around but can't find anything at all to solve my problem.

Would be really appreciated if someone could shed some light and fix this up.

Are you playing with your controller connected when you are using the mouse and this happens ?

If you are, try playing with the controller disconnected totally from Windows, even if you have a wireless connection to it. Don't just turn it off, but totally remove it as a connecton to your computer and test this again.

Already tried that and it's not working :(

Only way i've been able to fix this after trying for hours and hours is to manually set the application to run in Compatibility Windows 7

So by this post, I am assuming that you have perhaps upgraded to Windows 10 there then ?

If so, post the exact model and manufacturer of the computer. Model number also. If it is a custom build, post the exact motherboard.

Yes indeed, I am running on Windows 10 and everything was working real fine for the past year until last week.
Games were working perfectly even after upgrading a couple months ago (3) with new pieces of hardware.

I'm not 100% sure but from my own point of view and analysis, i'm strongly thinking it might be due to a virus that i've been able to stop before chaos which might have left some corruption that i just can't find or fix. (except with the compatibility mode in windows 7 like i said)

As for the motherboard It's a custom build Asustek P8Z77-V LK

I suggest you go here....

And make sure you have all your drivers fully up to date, and just with Windows if you have there. Download each one manually and install them, if needed. Use the drop menu if that is indeed your board, and be sure to select 32 or 64 bit correctly, depending on your specific OS.

Also, only if absolutely necessary, check for BIOS updates. If your mouse is USB then, for example, there could be an issue there that is driver related.

Changing an OS on a computer is not always so simple as just installing it on said computer. You have to be sure you have the drivers and in some cases, the BIOS for that OS to function properly and communicate with all your hardware, as perhaps you already know.

Check Flash Player, and Windows itself for updates. After doing all this, remove the compatability mode setting to test the results of your work. Don't forget to restart your PC if you update drivers, just in case, ever if you are not prompted to do so. Good luck.
