When using my PS2-Mouse within DosBox I can remark the following. The MouseCursor delays direction changes dramatically.

That means when moving the mouse to the left, the cursor moves to the left as well but much too fast. When I stop the mouse, the cursor stops as well. When I start moving my mouse to the right, cursor will move to the left for some time and then starts to move right as well.

DosBox is running in a virtual WINXP, hosted by Windows 7! Have tried another mouse (USB) with same results.

Joystick is disabled by conf-file....

Any further Ideas?

I have my virtualbox for separation concerns. My Windows 7 should only be there for Internet and hosting all virtual pc's.

And one virtual-pc is dedicated to gaming especially to using DosBox.

So you're getting all your virus stuff "only" on your main system and dosbox
is safe from them in its additional virtual layer. Nice one.
