@FlameDuck: I don't think that's his problem. I get a mouse lag as well, but it is only a fraction of a second. Long enough to be noticeable, but not an entire second long. Unless his movement requires precision movement, I'd doubt he'd really notice the lag at all.

eta: This will show you the difference between where the mouse pointer is and where the pointer is being rendered.
