How to fix: Mouse and/or keyboard don't work in game

[DYSPROssium]

Hello there,

This thread explains for PC how to fix: No mouse cursor in star wars battlefront 2 and/or keyboard not working properly

If you are running Discord:

1. Open up Discord.
2. Go to settings -> Overlay
3. Disable the Overlay
4. Restart Star Wars Battlefront 2 and you should be good to go.

If issue persists or you don't run Discord:

1. Go into Origin settings and disable the overlay.
2. Disable other overlays you are currently running.
3. Check your devices (battery level, connectivity).

Good luck,

Please help, this doesn't work for me, I have a bug/glitch that unexpectedly starts lagging my mouse, and a view starts moving itself to the right. Lagging of the mouse is actually more like extremely high sensitivity and sounds also lag when I try to look around.

any fix with out disabling the overlays?? i need them

[MrAdamsCZ]

Hello there, I figured out that the only thing that helps is not setting anti-aliasing and/or ambient occlusion on the highest value (I can't get into the game right now, so I don't remember which one). If you are suffering from the same problem, this should fix it. I hope it helps.

How do I disable origin overlay?

Go to the origin app, then in the upper left corner click in the Origin tab:


Then click the Application Settings option. A new window will appear, and in the upper part you'll find Origin In-Game:

There you just have to turn off 'Enable Origin In-Game':

@RogueZeroRendar this didnt fix my problem either , is there no other fix?

I had responded on the other topic but this one is better to keep this conversation

It can be a piece of hardware that messes the game. Try removing everything USB attached to your PC except your mouse and keyboard. It should do the trick if the overlays didn't. Let us know if it solves the issue for you.

Unfortunately this did not solve it either , I've already updated my driver's and all , steam , discord and origin overlay is off also /:

If you can bring more info on your specific case that would be very useful. I'm not aware of another common reason for a stuck mouse besides bad peripheral reading (usually USB devices) or gaming overlays. If you didn't already, I recommend disabling the Xbox Gaming App. All Windows 10 PCs come with it, and it's another gaming overlay. Another suggestion is to go to your game's .exe, right click, choose Properties, and then in compatibility disable fullscreen optimizations.

If these don't work, I'd like to know more details of your issue to see if we can find another workaround that might fix your issue.
