[Guest]

Hi,

Every time I log back into windows I have to adjust my mouse speed. The
computer does not "remember" the speed settings.

It is an HP tc4200.

Here are a few suggestions I found with a Google Groups search:

- Check out the permissions for the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse

Make sure that the account you are using has full control to this key.

- TweakUI has a mouse settings section. If you have it, it may be
conflicting with the standard CP settings.

- You can continue the search through the Google archived posts here:

I had such hopes that the registry change would work. It didn't though, I
already had administrator permissions. So it did not fix it.

The comp runs Synaptics for the mouse, do you see any harm in me
reinstalling this, presuming I can download it from somewhere?

Here's a Google Groups search on the "Synaptics Mouse". Change the
parameters to zero in on the problem..
