[vbox-dev] VBoxMouse.sys prevents windows XP guest from rebooting

[Huihong Luo]

The attached patch fixes this error, please apply it.
 
I will look into why vboxmouse is not working in Windows 8, most likely need to handle more pnp messages.

Latest svn code, xp sp3 guest, can shutdown w/o problem, but reboot hangs.
 
After attaching windbg, it displays this message:

When VBoxMouse is disabled, it reboots fine.
 
Another interesting discovery, when "Enable absolute pointing device" is checked, mouse ingration works very well even if VBoxMouse is disabled.
