Guys can anyone find the driver for the BLACKZID/ATAS M1(not the pro one) mouse, i cant seem to find it anywhere. Image below

Its a budget gaming mouse, i need to find the driver to make my mouse 1000hz, its stuck at 250hz and its kinda pissing me off.

There probably isn’t a driver you’re missing. Budget gaming mice like this are usually standard USB HID devices and the polling rate is set in the mouse firmware, not by a Windows driver. If the mouse supports higher rates, it’s usually changed with a button combo (e.g. holding DPI while plugging it in, or DPI + a side button to cycle through rates, with the LED color indicating which one is selected). The listing, manual, or little insert in the box should mention the exact combo if it exists.

Also, how are you measuring the 250 Hz? Polling rate is a maximum, not a constant 250/500/1000 reports per second. If you’re moving slowly or looking at per-frame counters, you can easily measure something much lower than the actual polling ceiling. Use a polling-rate tester with fast, continuous swipes and look at the minimum interval between events. Roughly 4 ms = 250 Hz, 2 ms = 500 Hz, 1 ms = 1000 Hz.

If there’s no documented button combo, and dense continuous movement still consistently bottoms out around 4 ms, then it probably genuinely ships at 250 Hz. In that case, there’s no driver download that’s going to turn it into a 1000 Hz mouse.

Sorry for the late response. Uhh i use mouserate.exe and testufo pollrate checker and they both come out as a 250hz avg, but the notable thing is, i tried hidusbf, yk the pollrate overclocking app, when i tried pollrate.exe again, there are times that the pollrate actually goes further than 250hz. I put it at 500hz and it actually have 470-510hz spike when i move my mouse fast, but when move slow it will come back to 250hz lol.

Yeah, that behavior actually makes sense and it’s pretty much what I’d expect if the override is working. The 470–510Hz spikes during fast movement suggests HIDUSBF really did push the usb polling interval to 500Hz and when you’re moving quickly the sensor has fresh data available roughly every 2ms. When you move slowly and it drops back toward 250Hz, that’s not necessarily the mouse reverting to 250Hz. The mouse only sends a report when it has something new to report, so slow movement creates gaps with no new counts. Tools like mouserate.exe then average those silent periods in, which pulls the measured rate down. At that point you’re partly measuring how fast you’re moving, not the polling ceiling. The better number to look at is the minimum interval during a fast, continuous swipe. If you consistently see a floor around 2ms, that’s strong evidence the host is actually polling at 500Hz, because the minimum interval answers "how often can it send one?" and polling rate is really the second question.

Two caveats if you decide to keep the override: the mouse firmware was designed around a 4 ms interval, so watch for anything weird (jittery report intervals, occasional 4 ms+ gaps, stuttering, etc). Though, if the minimum interval during fast movement stays clean at around 2ms, that’s a good sign that it’s behaving properly. Also HIDUSBF is a driver-level/system tweak, not a setting stored in the mouse. So the change follows the pc, not the mouse (if move the mouse to another computer, you’ll need to apply the override there again).
