xthursdayx Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Hi everyone, So I installed a Windows 10 Pro VM on my Unraid system. The VM itself seems to operate fine, with decent speeds, but the mouse is a huge problem. I have to constantly move or wiggle the mouse to get the VM mouse to respond, and there is around a 15 second delay between the movements of my actual cursor and the cursor in the VM, whether I just move it around, or click something. Any ideas how I can fix this? It's making me crazy! Thanks! PS, I already tried the suggestions in the sticky about performance improvements in VMs and CPU pinning with no luck. Quote Link to comment

How are you accessing it? Passthrough, VNC, or RDP? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 After the initial setup where you have to use VNC, switch over to using RDP.... Far, far, far faster (Or alternatively, don't use NoVNC... actually install a VNC client on the system accessing the VM) Quote Link to comment
