Re: Can the mouse inaccuracy issue be caused by win32k.sys?

Awaiting further instruction. Heya, Did the parts arrive already? If so, that was quick. Are you on Slack, Teams, Signal, Telegram (anything except WhatsApp)? Methinks it'd be easier to chat in real-time (and feel free to post any chalogs we have to here if you feel we discussed anything worth gett...

I thought people could see the image attached to the post, my bad.
What I meant was that I'd like to know how you found out that you should set these registry values in-particular, because they aren't mentioned in the forum thread you linked to.

Re: Can the mouse inaccuracy issue be caused by win32k.sys?

Sounds like a plan, and yes I can consistently replicate this issue 100/100 times. My timezone is GMT so let me know whenever you’re available and we’ll get to work! In order to do this properly, we'll need to re-play USB input messages - I've written an Arduino program that does this (and I'm alwa...

Re: Can the mouse inaccuracy issue be caused by win32k.sys?

I’m glad someone has browsed the code, as my understanding was that w10 was developed off XP? I may be wrong as I only read that in passing. That is correct: Windows 10 is a direct descendant of Windows XP. (The history of Windows has a few complications around the failed Longhorn project (between ...

Re: This Is How I Fixed My Input Lag

The thread that you linked to doesn’t mention the cache registry values - google isn’t telling me much either - can you tell us more about them?

Re: Can the mouse inaccuracy issue be caused by win32k.sys?

The mouse input code in Win32kBase.sys has changed a lot since XP. I spelunk through the code in Ghidra a lot thesedays and when I compared it to the leaked XP SP1 code, I saw the same fundamental calculations and algorithms being used, but in different places (e.g. the default acceleration curves a...

The culprit is windows defender
I don't believe this is the case. I'm prepared to believe that it worked for you, but fully disabling Windows Defender does not resolve the problem for me on my hardware.

Re: Mouse input lag/ floaty and heavy help/discussion :)

I believe this issue was introduced in Windows 10 1903 or 1909 - so I was hoping if anyone here could wipe their machine and do a clean install of Windows 10 1809 - or 1803 and confirm if the issue still happens - or if it’s gone (and make sure to never connect to the Internet either, in case any up...

But, your error margins are still fantastic, you might not even need it

Re: What causes a 500Hz mouse to sometimes report at 250Hz or 125 Hz?

You can busyloop on the monotonically increasing microsecond counter. The micros() can do microsecond-accurate sleeps that way on some Arduinos that are performant enough. Right - I switched to using `micros()` (though I didn't do a blocking loop, I wrote a state-machine so the program can cooperat...
