Mouse Lag in XP
This is a discussion about Mouse Lag in XP in the Windows Games category; well i'm glad to know that i'm not insane and i'm not the only one who notices that the mouse movement in WinXP is COMPLETELY PHUCKED UP compared to Win98 & Win2k. i've noticed some people posting stuff that they claim will fix the problem, but it never says if anything actually works.

What kind of mouse are you using? USB? P/S2? What brand? The biggest complaint I've seen has been with the Logitech iFeel Mouse.
OP
i'm using the original Microsoft Intellimouse w/Intellieye ... its USB ... i don't know if it would make a difference to plug it into the USB=>PS2 converter ...
Logitech iFeel USB sucks a$$. I have one and I don't know for sure if it's the mouse model or the USB interface that acts weird.
Kingtrey, depending on your motherboard, plugging your Intellimouse into the p/s2 port may speed it up. Also, check to see if your BIOS supports handling the USB mouse itself. If so, turn this feature on. This solved a lot of mouse problems on an ABIT motherboard I was configuring.

ok, i'll have to try those things, i have an Abit motherboard so maybe it'll help me too! i'm looking for an option relating to USB Mouse Support in the bios? i'll let you know what i find, thanks!
