Win XP SP3 - USB Rate Patch
26. September 2009 - 22:17
In some instances, after installing Service Pack 3, the USB Poll Rate reverts back to 125hz. Unfortunately the usual USB Mouserate fixer program doesn't work with SP3.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, I found a very nice fix for it!
This patches the usbport.sys from "c:\windows\system32\drivers\" to poll from 125 Hz to 500 Hz.
1) Use mouserate.exe to check your current rate.
2) Use patch_vol_en.exe to patch the rate to 500hz.
3) You must restart your machine for the patch to apply.

There is also a manual method which can be used.
1) Repace "usbport.sys" from "c:\windows\system32\drivers\"
(ensure you make a backup first)
2) Open usbmrs11.exe
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.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Run this utility with admin rights (Safe Mode recommended)
2. Follow the instructions
3. Restart Windows
