I need to do it via registry or BIOS since ps2 rate isn't working well for me(sometimes the mouse freezes). Anyone know to to do this?

Get Windows 2000k, it has built in support for overclocking your mouse :) AFAIK, you can't do it with just registry settings... there's a reason why ps2rate has to run as a service or in startup for the settings to remain in effect.

Well the problem with it is that sometimes the pointer doesn't move at all, or isn't repsonding. I have to use my keyboard to open up ps2rate again and set it to 100hz. It gets fixed when I reset it again, but I dunno why it stops...

I very very very seriously doubt it is an IRQ problem since PS2 mice get IRQ 12 all to themselves. Did you try to set the mouse rate at normal 60 and see if it still does it? if not then maybe your mouse has a problem with being OCed like that (tho I dont see why)
