Change startup speed on cursor

[substrukt]

I have a macbook pro (running Leopard, 4GB RAM, 7200RPM HDD) and when I move my cursor with the touch pad or a usb mouse the cursor start slow then gains speed. On my PCs the cursor always moves at a constant speed. Anyone know how to fix this?

The Mac cursor moves differently from a Windows cursor, mostly because of the acceleration that is built in. I'm not sure if you can change the Windows cursor to have that same acceleration.
Have you tried changing some of the mouse and cursor settings in Windows?

I think I may have typed what I did incorrectly. I want the OS X cursor to move like a windows cursor.

Oh - OK... I did think that you weren't sure which is better. The movement of a Mac cursor seems completely normal to me, and a Windows cursor just feels dead (but that's just me), and I searched around a little, and - -

Have you tried simply adjusting the mouse/trackpad settings? You may find that a quite small change might be all that you need!

Yea, i've tried adjusting the moust/trackpad settings. Doesn't do much. Thanks for the links, I think I'll give them a try.
