This is the first time I've heard of "old games with huge mouse unresponsiveness". And I can't imagine why "having an older mouse" would be any kind of a remedy.

If I am not mistaken, South Park is generally regarded as a frequently problematic game, and Windows 10 has all kinds of problems of its own.

Turok 2 has problems with high mouse DPI, so I think South Park would be the same. A universal fix for games with those problems would be nice. Dark Reign 2 and Populous the Beginning are two other games that are afflicted, though Populous The Beginning has a parameter that limits mouse polling to the framerate of the game (/frameratemouse).

I don't think Aliens Vs Predator 2 has that issue though, so you're asking for an universal fix and present two games with (likely) entirely different problems...

That's a good point. I had figured that the mouse issues are mainly due to conflict with newer mice DPI but perhaps it isn't that simple. As for AVP2 when you lower your DPI the mouse issues lessen. Another thing, I guess I should of specified older FPS. I'm sure there are more FPS that have mouse issues on newer PCs.

I will admit that South Park is simply a broken game so Turok 2 would be a better example. I just didn't have T2 on hand to test.

I could never even run South Park other than the N64 version on emulators.

Maybe that will help?

Not for games with polling rate issues. Probably not for any other games with mouse problems either. mouse acceleration settings is just user preference. Not game destroying responsiveness issues.

EDIT: maybe too?

Alternatively, even in the worst case scenario I believe you should still be able to downclock your usb controller.
