    Dunno... it was fine and then it wasn't... the only thing to change was a parallels desktop upgrade, have tried several different mice, all with the same result:
    when in autocad the smallest movement of the mouse sends the pointer racing across the screen, hover the pointer over menu items and movement is normal (???)

    does anyone have any ideas...? We need to tame the mouse...

    cheers,

    I had the same problem and when I sent a report request from Parallels itself I never got a response. However I was able to get the behavior back to normal by tinkering with settings. If you haven't already solved your problem, the following fixed it for me:

    1) In the menubar go to Virtual Machine, and then to Configure.
    2) Go to the Options tab.
    3) In Advanced make sure that the SmartMouse option is set to On (I think mine was on Auto).

    That fixed it for me!

    Cheers
