BE CAREFUL THO! It's a dangerous process. Before I could finally push my polling rate to 500Hz I completely destroyed 2 of 5 my USB docks

I believe it should work. In fact I only tried this in Customer Preview, which afaik is nothing else than Windows 7 with Windows 8 theme, but it really worked.
If the method seen under the link I gave won't work, I'm afraid nothing will ever work, Microsoft just didn't care about polling rate and it's 99% impossible to change it in Windows 8.

Coundnt find other solutions. There is no way to push polling rate up to 500hz. Only way is to use ps2 port and overclock it to 200hz, which seems like equal 500hz-usb for most of users.
