Product: Windows Operating System
Event ID: 12
Source: sermouse
Version: 5.0
Component: System Event Log
Symbolic Name: SERMOUSE_MOU_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
Message: The ring buffer that stores incoming mouse data has overflowed (buffer size is configurable via the registry).
   
Explanation

The buffer that stores keystrokes when you enter data faster than the application can process it filled up before you stopped typing. Some of the keystrokes were lost.

   
User Action

Wait until the application has processed the stored keystrokes, and then enter more data, being careful not to type ahead too far. If you get this message often, the buffer size should be increased by someone who is familiar with editing the registry.
