Hi my hero aion!.. just tell me if i did everything right.First i aplied cursor fix, just run install.bat or something...it still seems low accelerated, then i aplied system patch which seems okay..both patches was running is safe mode..iam using XPSP1 and playing fps games for 8y on quake engine based games

Hello!

I can't get rid of cursor-acceleration with either of Aion's fixes (anymore...).
The "old" program was working just fine until I recently had to reformat my harddrive.
I am using Win XP prof. SP2 german version (like I did before...), but the old tool doesn't seem to work properly: After installing the fix and rebooting, it worked, I didn't feel any acceleration and any curves I tried drawing in Paint were perfectly smooth. But after rebooting it seemed to have reverted back to the original behaviour, i.e. acceleration and jagged curves in Paint, even though the fix still said "acceleration is disabled".
Here is what I tried so far to fix that problem:
 - Installing/deinstalling the old fix various times. Disables acceleration sometimes, but never after rebooting...
 - Doing so in safe mode
 - Deleting DLLCache and DriverCache folders
 - Thinking my problem was caused by Windows File Protection, I tried this to circumvent WFP: http://www.windowsnetwork...-File-Protection-SP2.html
I have no idea if it worked/works, didn't solve the problem however.
 - Using Aion's new fix: This doesn't seem to do anything for me as far as I can tell. If I run it via cmd, some error appears, telling me some device connected to the system is not functioning properly. I read that this was expected behaviour, but acceleration is still present afterwards. In safe mode, running it via cmd results in an error telling me that some service can't be run in safe mode.
Even though, acceleration still present after rebooting.
 - Using another mouse: Deathadder, Krait, with drivers, without: no success
 - Literally screaming at my computer in frustration

Something weird I noticed: If I unplug my mouse, and plug it into another USB-slot I haven't used before, acceleration is gone(until I reboot...). However, I am running out of slots that I haven't used...

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I feel my computer is virtually useless with acceleration

/edit: I also just noticed that mouseaccel is disabled at the login-screen of winxp. Is it possible to prevent windows from screwing the mousesettings over when logging in?

Hi aion, I followed the installation instructions for vista x64. I applied deadlock and restarted windows. When windows loaded my cursor wouldn't move indicating acceleration, after a brief moment I was able to move my cursor. Will this fix only work with test-signing enabled? I don't like "test mode" appearing in each corner of my desktop. When I disabled test-signing and restarted my computer my cursor wouldn't move indicating acceleration. After using my keyboard to navigate to the mouse propertise and unchecking "Enhance Mouse Precision" I was able to move my mouse again but I'm assuming acceleration was still there. I will have to enable test-signing until I find a different solution for vista 64.

Aion,

I gotta agree, I am not the most sane person. :silly: I chose to run vista x64 for a few reasons. First, since vista has been out on the market for a while now, I thought it would be a good time to make a transition to the most recent operating system. Second, the superficial part of me enjoys the "eye-candy" and other aesthetic features vista offers. Third, vista will inevitably gain dominance as the evolution of operating systems has proven.

When deadlock is applied, do it's effects only last on the first windows restart? When I restarted windows for the second time (with test-signing still enabled), I was able to move the cursor as soon as it was visible (no freeze what so ever). I don't know how to test if acceleration is on unless I keep applying deadlock.

I gotta add, when I first installed vista x64 I thought acceleration was gone. In XP, acceleration is very apparant, not so with vista. I play counter-strike source were acceleration is easily noticed in windows xp, but in vista I can't be so certain. Your wcafix gives me a peace of mind, it's like a placebo.

i have a problem while in gameplay, my cursor/crosshair is jerky and really hard to aim.

would this fix mentioned here help me out.

i have a diamondback and run vista32 and use elantech touchpad software to control mouse settings, i have tried with and without razer software but still very jerky movement.

cheers.

until there is a way to get rid of accel in vista im not swapping to it.

thanks, works nicely
even thou its not needed in games i play the most (q3, ET and CoD4)
