Mouse behaviour in Parallels on Mac

I've got AutoCAD LT 2010 running in Windows 7 under Parallels 5 on my Macbook Pro core i7

I'm getting erratic behaviour of the crosshairs when trying to draft.

There are two independent problems, depending on which view mode i'm in:

1.
In 'Cristal' or 'Coherence' view the crosshairs move with a lag or delay as i move my mouse. I've seen other complaints about this on forums, but no working solution as far as i can see.

2.
In 'Window', 'Fullscreen' & 'Modality' views, the crosshair movement is initially smother and more responsive, but then i'm getting a weird erratic jog effect when i try to pan around the model (by holding down the middle mouse button and dragging.

Both of these problems are incredibly infuriating and make drafting in Parallels a misery. AutoCAD LT is supposed to be supported in Parallels now so I'd like to know if there's a way of getting around this horrible UI glitch.

Thank you for any help in advance,
Lewis

I've had the same issue running Parallels 7 and just in AutoCAD.  I'm currently using 2010, but I primarily use Revit 2010 and have had no issues there.   Here's what I just found and it works.  I just set this morning, so I don't know of any limitations...yet.

 

command line: 3dconfig

dialog window opens: click on 'Manual Tune' button in center-right of window

another dialog box:  in upper left corner, uncheck 'Enable Hardware Acceleration'

Any of the solutions noted here tried?

Is there anything that you have tried?

 

Has anyone ever asked this qestion in an Apple Parallels Forum to see if there is any insight there?

There is a message on the Parallels site saying it should be cleared up in Parallels 8. But nothing else!
