Does anyone know how to get rid of mouse acceleration on Windows Vista? I just installed StarCraft on my new laptop, but failed to find any information on how to do this. Searched TeamLiquid and Google without much help. I own a Diamondback 3G if that matters at all. (I am not running the Razer Mouse software, though.)
Playing StarCraft with acceleration is a serious pain in the ass. Thanks in advance!

Go to control panel->mouse->pointer options->uncheck enhance pointer precision. Nooblet.  |

| I've always wondered they the heck it's called 'pointer precision.' How is that mouse acceleration? |

mouse acceleration aids pointer precision...you can make smaller more precise movements, but it'll accelerate if you have to span long distances, etc.
It's actually great if you don't play BW...lol. |

What is it actually doing differently across smaller distances? How are your movements more precise? |

Sigh.
I don't know how you play WITHOUT mouse acceleration. Mouse acceleration makes everything so much simpler and easier to control :/ |

| Windows's implementation of mouse accel is TERRIBLE. Try moving the cursor relatively slow (in a diagonal, especially), and the cursor gets "stuck" easily. |

God I'm getting old; I don't want to participate in your jerk yank snap crackle pop debacle.
edit: I also tried looking up what mouse acceleration does exactly... but I haven't figured it out yet... can anyone explain it clearly?Last edit: 2009-09-05 13:55:14 |

| Isn't Enhance Pointer Precision about lowering the amount of distance the mouse pointer travels if you move your mouse(in short: sensitivty) to achieve better precision for low dpi mice? That's what the Razer support guy told me when I asked if it should be turned on, and he told me my mouse doesn't need it. Last edit: 2009-09-05 17:14:33 |
