This situation sounds unusual, but someone might help clarify. You have a setup with two monitors—one Asus Pro Art and one HP—both connected to different graphics cards. The issue appears when using the HP monitor: the cursor stutters in a regular pattern while it's connected but not active. Switching to the Asus monitor removes the stutter, but if you disconnect the HP or enable sleep mode, it returns. You mentioned trying wireless mice and even using a gamepad with Steam, but the problem persists across devices. The HP model is W2207, and all monitors use similar ports. Could be driver conflicts, power settings, or background processes affecting the display. Let me know if you want guidance on checking drivers or adjusting settings.
