Thought this may be of interest to potential/current gamers on 8.1 who are playing games associated with the problem. Seems MS are aware of the issue, and are looking to fix it soon. Good of them to do this, since apparently it's the game developers' fault for choosing outdated mouse input APIs for their games.

Not had this problem yet thankfully

Me neither, since I luckily only play titles that use Raw Input. It's lucky MS has such a huge user base, so these issues get sorted quickly a lot of the time.

Not experienced it personally, although I had a problem with the scroll wheel on my mouse. Had to tweak it in settings; the default was too jittery for my liking.

I've noticed issues while playing World of Warcraft.
The camera will sometimes just move 180 degrees while I'm using the mouse to control it.
