| Posted by PrEzi on December 2nd, 2008, 06:57 PM | Thank you Regen - been waiting for this to come up for Vista SP1 
Will test it on VISTA SP2 pre-Beta and let you know if it works ok. | |
| Posted by IModIntel on December 3rd, 2008, 09:47 PM | Microsoft Windows Vista's 125Hz USB sample rate is plenty. Get a good mouse and get some PRACTICE instead. | |
| Posted by PrEzi on December 3rd, 2008, 10:59 PM | Every hardcore gamer will FEEL the difference.
You think that MX518 is a bad mouse ? Because I don't and like it much better that the Razor's products. | |
| Posted by Regeneration on December 6th, 2008, 02:01 PM | When you're used to 1000Hz (1ms), you can't use 125Hz (8ms) and its not just for gaming. But 500Hz (2ms) should be enough. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on December 11th, 2008, 10:06 PM | Thanks for this, thought I was doomed after jumping to vista 64-bit. Anyway, it seems I cannot disable this Safe Mode without losing the shit. Does it affect anything to have this safe mode on 24/7? + the safe mode texts in the corners are annoying. | |
| Posted by Regeneration on December 12th, 2008, 05:25 AM | It's not safe mode, its test mode. It doesn't affect anything and there is a way removing the watermark.. but I can't provide it due to legal issues. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on December 17th, 2008, 12:07 PM | It would be nice if the author also reminds everybody that some mice will not go beyond 125Hz even with this patch. It has to do either with the sampling rate of the frequency the use to transmit with the receiver, and even others such as the MX400 (corded) has limitations due to the sampling chip that it uses to function the laser detector.
Often, corded and optical (NOT laser) are much better suited for forcing a higher refresh rate. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on December 23rd, 2008, 03:49 AM | I got sidewinder mouse which have 1000hz polling rate.. But I am getting 490-520ms.. My os is vista 64.
I tried many fixes but nothing effecting.. How to solve it? | |
| Posted by Regeneration on December 23rd, 2008, 08:57 AM | The maximum USB sample rate on Microsoft's SideWinder is 500Hz. But that's a lot better then 125Hz. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on December 24th, 2008, 05:02 PM | Since this seems to be a generic USB patch (As in, for all USB devices.) does anyone know if this will improve performance with crappy USB thumbdrives being used in Readyboost? There already are hacks to allow you to use any drive you want, but nothing that I'm aware of that improves performance on a so-so quality drive. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on December 24th, 2008, 08:59 PM | Works great! 500Hz with my IME 3.0!  Only problem (not major) I have is the stupid Test Mode watermark on the corners of my screen. If there's a way to get it out please let us know! It's really annoying. | |

| Posted by PrEzi on January 20th, 2009, 11:10 PM | Will test it tommorow with Win7  | |
| Posted by sef on January 22nd, 2009, 03:28 AM | Can I only use this while in Test Mode? I can't seem to get my mouse to work without it. | |
| Posted by nilum on January 22nd, 2009, 03:45 AM | Has anyone gotten this to work outside of test mode? I really didn't think I'd have to use Test Mode when I read this tutorial, but I can't use my mouse without it (edit: well at least not the USB port I typically use for it).
I am certain it has to do with hidusbf.sys not being properly signed and i did use the DSEO tool to sign it.
Something is not working right. Is there an update? |

| Posted by Regeneration on January 22nd, 2009, 07:48 PM | No, you must use TEST MODE. If you don't like the watermarks, it is possible to remove them, just google for user32.mui.dll. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on March 7th, 2009, 11:50 AM | i tried wht u said but my mouse stopped working ..then again i put it on another port it started working .i put another mouse on the previous port it worked too
so wht i did woring ? | |
| Posted by mkey on March 12th, 2009, 07:04 AM | I tried it on Windws7 and it doesn't work.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact I used the "bcdedit -set ..." method to turn off/set to test mode signature driver policy. | |
| Posted by PrEzi on March 12th, 2009, 05:20 PM | it DOES work - already used it in build 7000, 7022 and now using in build 7048. All of them x86. Now I will test it (maybe tommorow) in build 7057. | |
| Posted by mkey on March 13th, 2009, 08:02 AM | LOL in my own defense - I'm a moron. I have this semi-crappy mouse (good for general usage, but it lags in precision department) which probably can't go above 125Hz. It's Logitech BT58, and back then I purchased it for 15$  | |
| Posted by PrEzi on March 15th, 2009, 08:24 PM | no problem mate. This driver seems to be nicely-written and is a generic filtering driver which works in all OS so far. Buy yourself an 1600+ dpi mouse - you will feel the difference  | |
| Posted by mkey on March 16th, 2009, 08:47 AM | I'm waiting for the economic crisis to pass  | |
| Posted by Unregistered on March 20th, 2009, 09:54 AM | thx for the update i gonna test it on win7 rc1  | |
| Posted by ostenn on April 7th, 2009, 11:53 PM | This didnt work for me on windows 7 beta 7000  | |
| Posted by Ganondorf on April 13th, 2009, 06:36 PM | Hmm i followed the instructions but it didn't work on vista64 sp1. | |
| Posted by Elias on April 16th, 2009, 08:18 PM | How can i uninstall this shit? dont want my os to run in "test mode" | |
| Posted by Regeneration on April 18th, 2009, 10:54 AM | DSEO has been updated to version 1.3b, which links to test mode watermark removal. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on April 26th, 2009, 04:45 PM | Works like a charm on Windows 7, thanks! | |
| Posted by Grimskallen on May 8th, 2009, 12:33 PM | I am using logitech Mx518 and I cannot increase the sample rate from the default 125.
In Windows 7 Buld 7000 it wasn't a problem, but I tried build 7048/7057 and now also the Windows 7 RC I have not gotten it to work. I smell it has to do with the not properly signed somethings. I also tried with Logitech G5 and increased the sampling rate in Setpoint to 500, and that worked.... but I want to use my MX518. Any ideas anyone? | |
| Posted by Unregistered on May 8th, 2009, 02:50 PM | Got it to work in 32bit but not 64bit hmmm! | |
| Posted by Unregistered on May 18th, 2009, 08:18 PM | what's this "full path to the installed hidusbf.sys" thing. it's not mentioned where to find that, and there are several copies of this file in the zip. are we supposed to use a specific one? | |
| Posted by Tenshiin on May 23rd, 2009, 07:54 AM | I cannot get it to work in Windows 7 build 7100 (x64).
It used to work in Vista x64 without any problems.
Any leads? | |
| Posted by Unregistered on May 27th, 2009, 06:16 PM | This does NOT work with Windows 7 Ultimate x64 RC build 7000 | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on May 27th, 2009, 08:34 PM | there is no such thing as Windows 7 Ultimate x64 RC build 7000 | |
| Posted by Regeneration on May 27th, 2009, 08:45 PM | Thanks for the feedback, I'll check that out. | |
| Posted by Regeneration on May 27th, 2009, 11:18 PM | The author of HIDUSBF has released a new beta to support Windows 7 RC build. I've updated file here and now it should work again on Windows 7. Make sure to grab the fixed HIDUSB.sys from the link above. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on May 29th, 2009, 09:21 PM | Many thanks...
Works a charm on Windows 7 x64 7100 RC  | |
| Posted by r2rX on May 30th, 2009, 12:18 PM | I can confirm that this works with Vista x64/Windows 7 x64 beautifully.  | |
| Posted by Unregistered on May 31st, 2009, 09:20 PM | I confirm it working on Vista Ultimate x64 sp 1. My Razer Diamondback is now @1000hz. Thank you so much for this awesome tool.
THOUGH,
My cheap Logitec lasermouse stopped functioning, luckily Razer did function on higher polling rates but without the Razer drivers. I tried to install the Razer drivers AFTER I tweaked the polling rate and that rolled back the tweak. Now I have to miss 'on the fly' sensitivity, however that does not ruin it all. I can still change the sensitivity of the mouse in games and in Windows Vista. | |
| Posted by FragtioN on June 3rd, 2009, 01:04 PM | Been waiting for ages for 500Hz on Windows 7 x64 RC. Thank you ! | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 3rd, 2009, 07:17 PM | Does not work for me on Win7 Build 7137, installing the .inf fails. Any suggestions? | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 3rd, 2009, 11:05 PM | Does not work on windown 7 Build 7137, installing of the .inf fails. | |

| Posted by Unregistered on June 7th, 2009, 01:29 PM | I got it working on Windows 7 Build 7137!
Before you start you need to install IP32ENGW7Beta.exe (if you are using a Microsoft mouse). After that the mod works. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 8th, 2009, 09:57 AM | Does not seems to work with Server 2008 R2 RC1. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 8th, 2009, 09:35 PM | does this work for windows 7 32bit? | |
| Posted by pjm77 on June 9th, 2009, 12:02 AM | Does not work on Windows 7 RC x64 build 7100. Inf install fails, but this particular mouse won't work in this particular USB port anymore. When I connect it there's a weird sound and cursor won't move. Uninstall does not work either. Other mice and other devices work fine in this port. I just messed up two ports this way - what do I do now? I'm running out of mouse cable here:/ | |
| Posted by mkey on June 9th, 2009, 06:31 AM | When you connect the mouse can you see it in the device manager? You could uninstall it there and select the option to have the driver removed. IDK really, just a thought.
Of course, a fresh windows install will surely help ya  | |
| Posted by pjm77 on June 9th, 2009, 06:31 PM | It's not gonna work, this mouse works fine in every other USB port except two mentioned (got 5 in total in my notebook), so it's not a driver issue. This hidusbf affected these USB ports somehow, even if the driver itself was not installed (I did a search for hidusbf.sys on my whole system partition and none was found). Fresh install would probably help but it's not an option for me now, just lost a weekend to set up the new system two weeks ago and can't afford that again timewise. | |
| Posted by pjm77 on June 9th, 2009, 09:42 PM | blah, blah, blah... Contrary to what I thought the method you proposed helped instatly. The mouse connected to the "wrong" port showed up as an unknown hid device. Uninstalling it from device manager and plugging it again solved the problem, second USB port started working right away also. Thanks a million! | |
| Posted by mkey on June 10th, 2009, 12:25 PM | I knew it was going to work! /smug mode off  | |
| Posted by Homeless on June 16th, 2009, 02:19 PM | For some reason I can't get this to work on Vista ultimate x64. I have UAC disabled and have followed all the steps, but all that happens is that my USB device is unrecognized and I must change usb ports or remove the registry entry for it to work again | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 17th, 2009, 03:49 PM | Seems like it does not work anymore (maybe because of a windows update?).
Installing of the .INF fails! | |
| Posted by pjm77 on June 18th, 2009, 11:50 PM | thanks  | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 19th, 2009, 12:00 PM | To Regeneration:
>4. Extract HIDUSBF to some folder, right click on HIDUSBF.inf and choose Install.
Are the installing driver service from setup.exe ("Install Service" button) from hidusbf package is not work now in x64 environment? I personally test it under Vista x64 RTM. Can you tell, what version of MS OS is stop working?

I'm glad to see you around.
Well, It didn’t worked last time (A very long time ago) I tried it on both XP and Vista 64-bit editions. How do you call service installation? | |
| Posted by Unregistered on June 19th, 2009, 01:41 PM | >How do you call service installation?
As ShellExecute() for hidusbf.inf file. But since MS setup engine under x64 environment is not 32-bit compatible and my setup.exe is 32-bit application - i call 64-bit stub - sx64.exe.
It is work well under Vista x64 RTM.
But may be MS now try to check driver signature not only at load time, but at setup time?
So i recommend to try slightly other sequence of installation procedure -
1. enable test mode by dseo and reboot
2. sign hidusbf.sys by dseo after unzipping (not after installing into syste32\drivers)
3. then run setup.exe and then make setup as under 32-bit environment
