Performance problems from mouse input?

[Guest Brian MXP]

Howdy-

 

Is it possible (I feel like I've exhausted many other options) that the *very*

sluggish/borderline unresponsive (but unidentifiable in perfmon or taskman) performance

I'm seeing in my Win2003 EE R2 SP2 is being caused by RDP client mouse movement???

 

- If I log on to a physical console, it operates fine for Keyboard & Mouse

- If I connect with an out-of-band method (Dell DRAC) K&M is fine

- If I connect with RDP and use applications with _only_ my keyboard (alt-tab, Windows

cursor, etc.) it operates fine

 

- If I try to use the mouse for any action from RDP connection, it takes several seconds

to process the input and perform the operation [double-click, right-click, drag/drop, etc.]

 

This is very reproducible & very baffling...

 

Is this something on the server that needs to be modified? Or something on the client?

Or is it specific to the RDP connection itself?

 

Thanks in advance,

Brian
