Go to the control panel of your mouse and lower the "Polling Rate" setting to the lowest one available. For example, with a Razer Naga Epic I lowered it from 1000MHz to 125MHz in the "Razer Control Panel" and solved the problem. NOTE: If you don't have a control panel where make the changes it's because you didn't installed the proper drivers for your mouse. You can download them in the official website of your mouse manufacturer. More info for Razer users [http://www.razersupport.com/index.php?_m=downloads&_a=view here].
