Hey, anyone that uses Synergy out there on 2 xp machines with a Logitech G5 mouse?

when i scroll from my main pc to the other the mouse bugs out and sensitivity changes so much that i almost can't move the pointer on the other screen, and can barely make it back to my main pc's desktop before it bugs out. i've tried installing the mouse software on the other pc and that didn't help at all, i'm guessing its the mouse software thats doing it, but i have yet to try with just a regular microsoft intellimouse.. it just makes sense that it'd be the Logitech Setpoint software causing the issues, just lookin for some feedback from anyone that might be running the same setup.

If you run Synergy at startup, try closing Synergy, starting WoW, then manually restarting Synergy after your get your login screens. This solved some Synergy performance issues for me on my oldest PC.

Yeah, I get the same thing coming from my Mac to my PC. Pointer is fine for manouvering round the screen, but controlling the char - no way! it goes ultra sensitive and starts to make me sea-sick. The mouse attached to the PC has no such issues. I'll have to try 'Tub's trick and see if that helps.
