    I read an article a few weeks back about how there is a setting or option in windows that when disabled, helps in FPS since it helps out with the movement of your mouse and such. I've search on the forums googled but can't seem to find out what option it was and what it specifically does.

    Does anybody know of this? Thanksh

    The only setting I know of is the "Enhance Pointer Precision". You can get to that by going to Control Panel, double clicking "Mouse" (in classic view, control panel) and then select the "Pointer Options" tab. There is the option under "Motion" for it. Hope this helps.

    Nothing. It moves pretty smoothly already.

    A gaming mouse with higher sensitivity will also help in case you don't already have one.
