   After the OS is booted, try unplugging the mouse and   
   plugging the mouse back in. Did the automation   
   adjust it for you ? That works for my slightly-to-fast mouse.   
      
   It's strange, that upon boot-discovery, one set of settings   
   is used for the mouse. Yet, if you then unplug and replug,   
   a second set of settings are used. I've waited a long time   
   for that to be fixed, but I guess all the devs have mice from   
   the year 2000 :-)
