Glitchty mouse pointer while using scaling or with Mouse Integration Disabled.

Post by leotakacs »

Exactly what the title says. I'm using the newest version of VirtualBox (5.2.12 at the moment), and I'm in a situation where I cannot use mouse integration inside my Windows 7 Guest Machine.
However, with MI disabled, my cursor becomes extremely glitchy and forms a strange black graphic around it. This began to happen on my new laptop, which has dedicated graphics (Nvidia MX150) unlike my old one. I tried using the Nvidia control panel to toggle between my Integrated Graphics and Dedicated Graphics for VirtualBox, but that did not fix the issue either.


Thank you for your help :)

We're going to need a complete VBox.log, from a complete VM run:
  • Gathering the necessary information:
    1. Start the VM from cold-boot (not from a paused or saved state).
    2. Observe the error.
    3. Shutdown the VM (force close it if you have to).
  • With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
  • Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response. See the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
