Err, you really shouldn't be using raw input any more.  You should be 
obtaining mouse data through the Windows messages sent to your 
application/window.  More importantly you shouldn't attempt to by pass 
any acceleration that Windows provides per the users settings.  (There's 
nothing worse than trying to play a game with a mouse cursor that crawls 
across the screen like a snail with a broken leg.)
