WinXP32 Guest - Mouse swims not moves
Posted: 12. Oct 2021, 00:18
[MacBook Pro 2014 15" Retina (i7 - 16GB) w/ Catalina 10.15.6, VirtualBox 6.1.22 r144080 (Qt5.6.3)]
I just added a preconfigured vmdx image that runs WinXP 32bits onto my MacOS Host. The machine seems to run ok; the graphic rendering is fine and snappy, but the mouse movement is giving me motion sickness.
The mouse moves as though it's swimming in a current that occasionally changes from being adative to subtractive.
WinXP, on boot-up seems to find a bunch of new devices, including network card, VGA Display, USB, and so forth. This kind of suggests that I don't have the right hardware being emulated in VirtualBox.
Are there any VirtualBox settings that I might have misconfigured? Should I be inserting the Guest Additions CD?
(I can supply further information as needed.)
