Playing Games and Mouse Clicks Don't Always Register

[YesIupdatedWindows]

Ok, so, I've searched around and have not found any other posts that seem to relate exactly to my problem.


When I play SOME games ( not all the games I play run into this issue) my mouse clicks don't always seem to register in game. It is a bit hard to describe but here goes nothing... It seems as if, when there is a lot of things going on in the game, my pc simply can't register that I'm clicking. Standing still (in game) the mouse works just fine but when enemies are getting close, bullets are flying, explosions are tearing holes in things or I turn the camera really fast... My clicks don't do anything. It's infuriating.


I've read somewhere, something, about "processes" and closing unnecessary processes/programs should lighten the "workload" of the computer to hopefully "pick up" on the clicking of the mouse.


I'm not sure how that works or even IF this is necessarily my issue.


One I know for certain, is that I don't know jack about what the root problem could possibly be.


I will try to update with PC specs once someone can tell me where to start looking...any assistance is greatly appreciated..

This problem I have has been apparent for at least a year; even before I updated Windows recently.

Just earlier I updated all drivers associated with the list given by Windows via the "Settings->Updates" or "Settings->Hardware and Devices"

Is it possible that my graphics card is having issues?? This doesn't seem connected to the problem...does it??


Is it the FPS of the games I'm playing? I usually set the games' to not have a maximum frame rate. Maybe I SHOULD have a max frame rate? I got the hardware that I have so I wouldn't need to worry about frame rates and I should be able to fackin go HAM on my graphics with my sick nasty CPU...right?
