Changing mouse speed from commnd line

patricon · 2007-08-20, 02:22

Does anyone knows if there is any way to change the mouse speed in windows from command line? or may be using a third pary tool... i've tried using a reg patch but the problem is that changes in mouse section doesn't take effect until i restart my computer

hi Patricon

i have no idea if it is possible, but i'm sure it can be build into a plugin, and then changing the mouse speed on startup of mediaportal and maybe resetting it again on exit (Just like my screensaver plugin)

Is that what you are looking for, cause if it is, i might spend a minute on evaluating this :-)

hi patricon

you can use this program.

Call it without paramters to get the current speed

Call it with a number between 0 and 20 to set the new speed
