I just got virtualbox a few hours ago, it looks like a great program. But once I installed it I realized any time I move the mouse the screen freezes until I stop moving the mouse. The pointer does move to the correct distance, but I just can't see the movement. I'm on windows 7 ult. host and virtualbox. I really havn't done much to it other than downloading firefox, which took a while to do. I'm not even sure if im posting this is the correct place, but hopefully I can get some help. Thanks in advance!

virtualbox version is 4.3.16, 64bit (not sure if this is the guest version. I could not find that information. I used the default download, and default setup options.

virtualbox

Thanks again, let me know if I missed anything!

Code: Select all
0:00:04.264774 Host RAM: 8090MB total, 5761MB available
00:00:04.993308 Logical host processors: 8 present, 8 max, 8 online, online mask: 00000000000000ff
00:00:04.993677 Physical host cores: 4
Just to set the record straight you have a total of 8GB memory and 4 cores.
Your jerky mouse is probably due to the fact that you have not installed the guest additions ( in the guest ) yet.
