[QUOTE="ifacedown, post: 362809, member: 18621"] First time I have encountered this. I always set my pointer speed (touchpad on netbook) to maximum, and using Synaptics Touch Pad, also enable "momentum." I booted on a USB using GParted Live ISO. The mouse pointer speed was so fast there. I rebooted back to Windows, then this strange thing happened: the speed of the pointer was reduced to half. At full speed scale, it was the average, normal speed. Even though I use momentum, still slow for me. I tried these four things: 0. Do a System Restore prior to that. - no effect, then tried 1. 1. Uninstall/reinstall Synaptics. - no effect, then tried 2. 2. Uninstall/reinstall mouse/touchpad driver. - no effect then tried 3. 3. Adjust registry settings and reverted again to its normal settings. - what? still no effect! All these four things resulted to NOTHING. Still the speed was half its normal speed. SYSTEM RESTORE failed me! Though I had a successful system restore, but the touchpad speed wasn't reverted back to its normal speed! Pls help! I do NOT want to reinstall Windows! Thanks! [/QUOTE]
