High tech gone wrong: Terminal Services + VirtualPC

OK, I'm living the life of high tech.

I can use Remote Terminal Services (rts) to connect to a server.
I can use Virtual PC to run Win2k with SQL Server 2005 Beta on that server.

I cannot get the mouse to behave inside of that virtual os. That slippery sucker is jumping all over the place right now! I move the mouse an inch to the left, the mouse jumps kamikaze style to the far edge of the screen and goes straight down! Why? I guess the little mouse felt like it.

I think what I will have to do is run rts to the machine, start Virtual PC, and then rts into the virtual OS. Then, maybe-hopefully, the mouse wont act like a Jack Russell Terrier on acid.

Sheeze, the stupid things we try to do with technology these days...

Acid wouldn't make a Jack Russell do that. Meth would though.
