I have parallels. It's great for running Windows apps on my Macbook Pro (something necessary for the work I do). I have repeatedly run into an issue when running EQ under parallels. When I am looking around with the mouse, there is an odd behavior when I do a mouselook up or down.. It jumps to full up or full down. This does not happen if I click and hold the mouse button and then move the mouse. If however I am moving the mouse and then click to use mouselook, the view jumps as described. I have never been able to resolve this (now running Parallels 6 on Windows 7). It would be great to be able to play EQ without having to exit the Mac OS to my bootcamp partition. Have you (or anyone else) had luck playing EQ in Parallels? Do you have this issue with mouselook? I'd love some help.

I have no problems whatsoever running EQ in parallels. I used to have strange mouse issues when I first got parallels, but it was nothing I couldn't fix by making sure smart mouse was enabled and tweaking in game/windows mouse settings.

Odd. I have smartmouse enabled.. The mouse tracks around quite fine in all other respects. The only issue which ever happens is when engaging mouselook while moving the mouse.. I'll have to play around with the settings some more.. Thanks!
