I'm not sure about before but I just realized that my fps starts capping at 60 instead of 240 whenever I select a beatmap. Recently only my cursor has started lagging whenever I tried playing and it hinders my performance.

Details revolving the problem:

The lag only occurs when I use my tablet but not when I use my mouse. The fps ONLY caps at 60 whenever I select a beatmap. The colored squares next to the FPS / Ping counters are mostly red.

What I've tried doing to resolve the problem:

I turned off v-sync in both my game and graphic settings. I tried turning on FreeSync but none if it helps.

NOTE:

I have the latest updates on all of my drivers and there are no problems whatsoever with them. I can run other games just perfectly fine.

osu! version:

Stable 20190513.2 (latest)

If you have your frame limiter set to unlimited, when you start a beamtap the FPS counter switches to your monitor's refresh rate (in hz). If the ms value right below the fps display is not at ~16.6 you are not being capped at 60fps.

What tablet do you have? Try disabling either Windows ink or Support TabletPC in its drivers (the setting differs depending on which tablet you have).

You have my thanks! Disabling Windows Ink helped a lot but there is a new problem which I just noticed. My cursor is late to react with my hand and in game while playing, it turns back to my ordinary computer pointer sometimes. Any idea on how I can fix that? If so please tell me.

And by the way, I use a wacom tablet. I'm not sure about the model because it doesn't display the model name on the tablet and I lost it's package. But all I can say is that it's compatible with the latest wacom driver.

Does it only switch to your windows cursor over certain portions of the screen? Are you on Windows 10?

I've only seen it happen on the center of the screen and a little to the right. I figured it was a program that overlayed osu! so I disabled overlays on those which I knew of, Discord, AMD Radeon Settings. There is also this Windows supported recorder installed which I do not know how to disable but I am sus of this program. But it didn't help me. The cursor isn't in sync with my hand movements yet, I feel like there is a latency between me and the cursor. It lags more when I play on beatmaps which contain a video file. This hasn't happened before so I'd like it fixed.

And yes, I am on Windows 10(64-bit)

That Windows recorder thing you mentioned is probably Game DVR and/or Game bar, and yeah it should definitely be disabled because that is most likely the issue here. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-and-remove-game-bar-windows-10-creators-update

Maybe you accidentally disabled fullscreen or something. That can cause quite a bit of input lag on Windows 10.

I disabled them and it helped me, but the input lag on windows 10 still remained. But since I feel like we're getting off topic I will be starting another discussion about this.

Thank you for you help, sencerely!
