The Razer Config Utility worked perfectly for about 5 seconds before the Utility said the mouse had disconnected... It looks as if the utulity sees the mouse and then the mouse for some reason disconnects after anywhere between 1 and 10 seconds. (but the mouse is still usable and moves around) Strange...<br /> <p /> Maybe the MacBook Pro trackpad/mouse is messing with the Fusion USB mouse control?

Windows thinks it has a generic wheel mouse, not a Razer Mamba or whatever, so your mouse software doesn't think it has anything to talk to. Since USB devices can only be controlled by one OS at a time, by default, Fusion filters out input devices from the menu (or else you might get stuck in the virtual machine). If you really want, you can override this restriction (see the <i>USB HID</i> section in <a class="jive-link-wiki" href="http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-1201">A Power User's Guide to VMware Fusion</a>), which should allow all the mouse functionality to work. However, you probably want to have another one for the host.

I believe it has to do with Fusion just emulating<br /> whatever mouse is connected through Leopard and not actually passing<br /> through the mouse to the XP VM.... Under the USB devices menu, Fusion<br /> only displays the apple ir receiver and the apple camera.<br /> <p /> Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!
