Try updating drivers with Intel Driver Update Utility and Nvidia and Dell website for your laptop. There may be some fixes that may solve your issue:

One find in Intel GPU drivers update is:

  • WebGL rendering anomaly in Google Chrome* and Mozilla Firefox* browsers resolved.

This may affect your mouse I guess. There seems to be a lot of other updates for E6420 as well so try that and see.

Additionally try to play with BIOS power management settings for your CPU. Especially disable C-State and see how it goes.
