If the following mirrors your symptoms....

When you first turn on your computer your mouse cursor works perfectly. As you continue to use your computer the mouse cursor eventually begins to have the problems you describe. After another restart it works fine....for a while.

If that is what you're seeing its likely your system is running on an inadequate amount of system memory or you have one or more applications running that are using too much system memory.

Solutions. Other than restarting your computer more frequently you might check into a memory upgrade or see if you can identify if one or more applications are consuming system memory. Typically its those applications that are auto starting. Usually visible on the right side of the taskbar.
