Mouse Sampling in Win2000
This is a discussion about Mouse Sampling in Win2000 in the Windows Hardware category; Is there any way to change the mouse sampling rate in W2k? Going from 200hz in NT4 to 60hz in NT5 kind of sucks. .

you can also change the sampling in win2k. im not on by 2k box, but if i recall right its mouse props, then advanced, but ill check when i get home.
Yes you can in your mouse properties, if you have a standard ps/2 mouse. I, however, have the Intellimouse explorer optical usb thing and can't change it in the mouse properties. But it's smooth enough =)
You can change the sample rate w/o any 3rd party programs by doing this:
Control Panel / Mouse / Hardware tab / Properties button / Advanced Settings tab
There's a sample rate field that only goes up to 100, and an input buffer length field. The help on the input buffer field says increase if you have erratic mouse movements. I increased both of these to the max and it fixed some erratic problems I was having in Q3 and Draken. (Well, I'm still having some probs in Draken but it's tolerable now.)

Can you adjust the sampling in NT4 without a 3rd party program? If so, how? thx.
