Windows – Hyper-V “Mouse input not captured”

hyper-vwindows 8

I've installed hyper-v on windows 8, downloaded and added virtual machine from ms site "Windows 7 IE 8". But I can't use mouse, see message in bottom of window "Mouse input not captured". "Action->Insert Integration Service Setup Disk" and reboot doesn't help, "ctrl+alt+left arrow" doesn't help. What's the problem?
upd: I tried this http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dau-blog/archive/2012/02/28/mouse-not-captured-in-remote-desktop-session-when-virtual-pc-vhd-file-runs-in-hyper-v.aspx but after 'starting windows' mouse goes away.

Steps to resolve this problem:

  1. go to virtual machine
  2. go to control panel-> programs and features
  3. remove "Virtual PC Integration Components"
  4. shut down and turn on virtual machine

You have to do all these steps using keyboard. Tab is your best friend here.
