Every time I run an FPS game like Counter-Strike 1.6 or Team Fortress Classic on Windows XP, the mouse spins erratically, looking either at the ceiling or at the floor. This is a common problem among VM users (not just XP), but here I'll give you the specific fix for XP.
1. In Control Panel, open "Printers and Other Hardware", then "Mouse".
2. In "Pointer Options", disable "Enhance pointer precision".
3. In VirtualBox settings (typically upper tab when VM not in fullscreen), get into "Input" and disable "Mouse integration".
Done! Those two things alone helped me! If you have any problems, comment below!
