My XP installation under VMware is running incredibly slowly. The
second hand on the XP "date and clock" is taking several seconds to
move 1 secoond!
Here's my installation, in brief:
-- Fresh install of FC6 (respin DVD) on a clean Dell Precision M70 laptop.
-- The machine has the nVidia "Quadro FX Go1400" video processor in it.
-- All FC6 updates as of yesterday (186 of them).
-- 2.6.19.1-2911 kernel, and opensource "nv" driver
-- Fresh install of VMwareWorkstation-5.5.3
VMware itself comes up fine,
but XP starts and runs _really_really_really_ slowly.
Does anyone have a clue? I am stumped.
