MoDs Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I've plugged in a new USB mouse using a USB-to-PS2 converter. Now, the mouse tracking speed is **very** fast. I can't control it. I changed the "Tracking Speed" in the "Keyboard & Mouse" settings to the *minimum* speed. Even after, the speed is very fast. Is there a way to make it even slower? Please help, it's very urgent. I can't use my computer! Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/60316-mouse-speed-is-very-fast/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gimpyviper Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 What happens when you just leave it as usb? My mouse would do this as well, but mainly because I have it connected through a KVM switch. I've since directly connected my mouse to my Hackintosh, and it's been fine since. Out of curiosity, as BJMoose implied, why aren't you just leaving it USB?

MoDs Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 When i connect the mouse directly through the USB, my keyboard stops working! In that configuration (keyboard-ps2, mouse-usb), it's perfectly working under windows and during boot. But after OS X has loaded, the keyboard is dead. Not even a single key responses, not even the caps lock key!! PS: I was using a PS2 mouse during installation, but now i've changed to a USB mouse. Any idea?Thanks! EDIT: I realized that Mac OS won't respond to a keyboard connected through PS2 unless a PS2 mouse is also connected, at least for me. So I've done a dirty workaround. I've plugged in my old PS2 mouse AND the USB mouse, but actually i'm using the USB mouse, leaving the PS2 just plugged in Thanks anyway and if you find another better way, please lemme know.

This is what was happening to me, PS2 Keyboard = PS2 mouse only. Thankfully my keyboard has USB option. Especially since if I plugged in my keyboard and/or mouse via PS2 USB would stop working.

U.C. Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 MoDs There is a fix for this PS2 USB thing. Look in the genius bar section. I believe its posted in one the stickies by Ramm.
