Any idea why it is for XP only?  Is it somehow dependent on rawmouse?

From the text in the utility's first screen:
USB Mouserate Switcher lets you enforce a mouse polling rate of 250 Hz (4 ms), 500 Hz (2 ms) or 1000 Hz (1 ms) and lets you restore Windows' original "usbport.sys" (8 ms) if needed.

It patches an XP system file.

D.

Hmmm....  I have this file on Windows 2000.

I wonder if it exists on Windows 98SE/ME

sWampy:

Good find, I might redo one of my control panels for 2 trackball now that my mini-pac might be usable, and mame had good dual mouse support.

ahofle:

Does anyone know what the default polling rate for a USB mouse device/trackball is in Win98SE?  Is there anyway to change it?
