The default settings for the mouse have acceleration enabled. To disable acceleration in the Mouse Control Panel tool, you can move the Mouse Speed slide bar all the way to the left. However, this makes the mouse pointer move very slowly in relation to the movement of the mouse. More complete control is achieved by modifying registry values MouseThreshold1, MouseThreshold2, and MouseSpeed. See Q149228
