Hi, Yes CATIA V5, CATIA V6 and the 3Dconnexion Viewer.

To know for sure, plug your SpaceMouse to the machine using a cable and -- this is important -- reboot it.

If using a cable prevents the odd movement, then try placing the wireless receiver closer to the device. For example, move the receiver dongle to a USB port on front of the machine or on the monitor, if available.

I can't explain it, maybe it was the windows update that ran yesterday (.net update IIRC) But today, everything is running fine and as expected.
