Since I re-installed FAD Ive noticed that my mouse cursor acceleration has gone, when I disable it, it comes back.

Anyone else noticed this?

They don't give out credit for jobs a month or two after the end of the query, so it is probably better to just remove the jobs and get fresh ones.

Don't worry, I have his home address so I plan on sending Alistair messages made from cut up bits of magazine until he runs it.

Y'know, for dull tasks, like processor hungry apps and decentralisation.

Yup, that buzzword got me out there.

I'm out until I can afford a few servers. There's no way a P-M can do anything useful.

Also I think SR members should pull their CPU weight a bit more...

Hmm.Your OpenGL comment got me thinking - cracked it.

The Mouseware gives you the option of either disabling or enabling acceleration in games, I have it disabled. I guess it classes games as anything that runs on D3D or OpenGL.

So when the FAD windows open up it must think theres a game running and cut the acceleration!!!

So it gets you out of having to do that much work in actually moving your hand? Right...

I haven't a clue to be honest. It either means you mouse accelerator warp drive software needs vast resources, or plausibly could have something to do with OpenGL. In the FAD setup panel, go to the options tab and either turn on OpenGL, or turn it off. Don't imagine that is the solution, but worth a shot.

By disable do you mean putting to sleep, or actually closed?

It's one of the mouse settings so that as you move your cursor, it gets faster. Means you've got good precision for small movements, but can cover the screen quickly.
