Yeah, I had that happen too. The way I fixed it was in my main loop, I 
throw away all mouse movements except one. This forces you to update the 
mouse once per loop, instead of many times per loop. DirectX appears to 
be feeding every XY transformation to the event loop, instead of 'most 
recent coordinates' as happens in windowed mode.

For simplicity, I throw all away except the first one. If you wanted to 
be more accurate, you should probably throw away all except the LAST 
movement. That way you're always guaranteed of being up to date.
