I beleive it is 125Hz (8ms).  And I do not know of a program to change it.

The driver for the Razer Boomslang mouse had a polling rate changing utility for PS/2 mice under win 95 and 98.  Here's the little descriptive blurb from the software's help page:

Ps2 and usb are 2 seperate things.  But I think even ps2 no longer works at 200 in XP.  Go to device manager, set the advanced properties to 200, and it works at 125Hz.

Which is of course my fault, not windows.   ;D

I know that.  I just thought somebody might want it, and we were already on the mouse polling rate subject. 

And hey, I always wondered who to blame for Windows' bugs.  Darn you!

Can someone do a diff of the patched and unpatched usbport.sys and see how much is changed?   I imagine it's probably just changing a couple of bytes somewhere.

Something similar could probably be done in Windows 98SE/ME if we could figure out which file to patch and what to look for.

There's some guys over in the Unofficial Windows 98SE forum who are pretty good at this sort of thing...
