i am not an expert for ps2 mouse,but i find a article about it. http://www.computer-engineering.org/ps2mouse/ note: there is a conclusion about command set " Command Set: The following is the set of command accepted by the standard PS/2 mouse. If the mouse is in Stream mode, the host should disable data reporting (command F5h) before sending any other commands. " IMO, i think before u set your sample rate,u need firstly disable data reporting. So i think your operation sequence maybe has some problem.
