SP3 & Accelfix.exe

by b • 27 May 2008, 21:29 • Journals
Did you have any problems with disabling accel @ SP3 so far?

Because both ag0n & nVc here couldn't disable accel.

It just works fine without any problems since the day SP3 released 4 me:

It contains all previously-released Windows XP updates, including security updates, out-of-band releases, and hotfixes released since August 2004.
There are reportedly 1,073 fixes in SP3, and various performance improvements.

I don't know, have you fixed your yesterday's problem with disabling accel? your last comment was about the error that you get and then i went to bed.
Parent

Deactivated6046 28 May 2008, 13:06
hm, I enabled accel again and then it was fixed. I'm using wcafix atm
Parent

b 28 May 2008, 13:08
'I enabled accel again?' why you had to enable and not to disable it?
Parent
▼
Deactivated6046 28 May 2008, 13:15
because when it was disabled i received an error every time after booting my pc

Deactivated6046 28 May 2008, 14:00

So is there any way to get it working on SP3? Howto do it in protected mode?!? :S whats that?
▼
abort 27 May 2008, 23:11
most probably because the WFP is updated.. they have to do it in safe mode or download the kernel accelfix driver (i suppose it's called wcafix)
▼
kot 27 May 2008, 23:56
no problems here
▼
HellKn1ght 28 May 2008, 00:14
disabled without problems.

wcafix>accelfix
it feels so much more responsive, that's like shit lcd monitor + mouse @ 62hz vs crt monitor + mouse @ 1000hz, and i still cant get used to it because of it, but anyway it feels much better

Accelfix.exe can be applied to SP3 of course. The problem is that it doesn't work as it should once it's applied. I don't know why I'm the only one who keeps saying this but it's pretty obvious to me that the accelfix isn't working properly in SP3. It gives a shitty mouse feeling and makes it difficult to aim. Microsoft has changed the system files that the fix was intended to modify, ofc it's not going to work properly.

As for wcafix, i don't think that is any good. Due to the change in implementation it's not very responsive and there even seems to be a delay of some kind. Patching win32k.sys on disk (accelfix) instead of in memory (wcafix) seems better. Unfortunately since anir/aion has disappeared I'm stuck using the lame CPL mouse fix until something better comes out.
