Help please!
I've just upgraded to XP [Dual Boot with '98SE] and have come across a bit of a problem re 'Accessibility' using the new Disability Options. Hopefully someone can offer a tweak or similar.
My disability means that I must use the Numeric Keypad to control the mouse and use Sticky Keys for CTRL, SHFT, ALT etc.
Problem 1 is that with the mouse acceleration + mouse speed set at highest limits, it's still very slow and 'jerky'. It works great in 98se at about 90% of limits.
Problem 2 is using the sticky keys. I've selected 'silent' mode but still get a 'DOINK' noise from the computer's internal speaker every time CTRL, SHFT, ALT is pressed. ie, nearly all the time.
These may seem trivial to mouse users, but it's really driving me up the pole. Surely a new OS should be improving instead of going backwards OR is there something I can do to overcome these faults.
I've got access to XP !PLUS but haven't loaded it yet, since I'm having problems controlling the mouse & sticky keys! Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks in advance. O, Happy New Year as well!
