Steve,

Try NCC from Norton Utilities. It's NOT memory resident, just sets your
cursor speed once when you boot up. It's easy to use, here is the line
from my autoexec.bat that takes care of it:

c:\bin\ncc c:\set.cfg /keyrate > nul

where set.cfg is the file that holds various configuration info.
Make sure you buy Norton 4.5 if you don't have it, and not 5.0.

Tony
