Posted by kashaan143 on October 16, 2008

XP Mouse Filter FixThis is the WinXP mouse accel tweak. It restores the feel of the mouse back to Win2K style. Very helpful for gamers and those sensitive to mouse movements.

    Hi,

    Has anyone tried setting this:
    “SmoothMouseXCurve”=hex:

    it shows as “(zero-length binary value)”
    in the registry

    here is the reg file contents:

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse]
    “ActiveWindowTracking”=dword:00000000
    “Beep”=”No”
    “DoubleClickHeight”=”16″
    “DoubleClickSpeed”=”500″
    “DoubleClickWidth”=”16″
    “ExtendedSounds”=”No”
    “MouseHoverHeight”=”4″
    “MouseHoverTime”=”400″
    “MouseHoverWidth”=”4″
    “MouseSensitivity”=”8″
    “MouseThreshold1″=”0″
    “MouseThreshold2″=”0″
    “MouseTrails”=”0″
    “SnapToDefaultButton”=”0″
    “SwapMouseButtons”=”0″
    “MouseSpeed”=”0″
    “SmoothMouseXCurve”=hex:
    “SmoothMouseYCurve”=hex:

    I tried every mouse accel fix on the internet believe me it makes a huge difference.
    My mouse hand’s wrist stopped to bother me almost instantly.

    Changing SmoothMouseXCurve to some other value is just another curve of accel. But setting this to non-value seems to turn accel off.

    Best of luck
