subject: Slow mouse in XP

From: Gary Britt 

Am I only one of two people in the universe that felt the mouse in XP was
slow.  Too slow, and not able to be set fast enough (i.e., as fast as the
same mouse works in Win2K)?

I also think the same thing of the keyboard repeat rates which can't repeat
as fast in XP as they do in Win2K.

I have found the cure for pokey mouse.  No acceptable cure yet for the
keyboard repeat rate.  The pokey mouse was far more annoying than the the
almost but not quite fast enough keyboard repeat rate XP problem, so at
least I've got a solution to that one.

I was amazed when doing research on this issue that there were plenty of
people looking for a way to disable and eliminate XP's built in mouse
acceleration curves(for game playing apparently), but only one other person
in the universe looking to speed up XP's built in mouse acceleration
curves.
  Fortunately, I did find that one other person and he had the answers that
I needed to build appropriate registry modifications.

Anyone else want the cure for XP pokey mouse?
