How to disable mouse acceleration in Windows Vista SP1?

Hi,

I'm a Counter-Strike player.
Before Vista SP1, I use game parameter "-noforcemaccel" and the following
registry to remove mouse acceleration. I works fine in Windows XP and
Vista(With no SP1).

===============================================================================
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse]
"SmoothMouseXCurve"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,a0,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,40,\
01,00,00,00,00,00,00,80,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,05,00,00,00,00,00
"SmoothMouseYCurve"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,66,a6,02,00,00,00,00,00,cd,4c,\
05,00,00,00,00,00,a0,99,0a,00,00,00,00,00,38,33,15,00,00,00,00,00
===============================================================================

But after I updated to Vista SP1, it does not work anymore.
I've asked all around but still no solution there.

Can anyone do me a favor that how to disable MOUSE ACCELERATION in Windows
Vista SP1?

Thanks very much.

hello, i registered just to post this: there is a workaround! use the
flags in the shortcut as mentioned above and... play in windowed mode!
yes it sucks but i'd rather live with that than having screwed up aim.

You registered just to post "this" to a thread that died a year ago?

this thread might have been dead, but it was also one of the top search
results i got while googling this problem. and after all this time, the
mouse acceleration is still a real problem so i'm sure someone will find
my post useful
