UMDSmith Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Keep in mind that you are running windows inside a vm shell, inside windows. No matter how you shake it, there will be some slowness. If you were running on an ESXi OS and had 2 VM's (win7 and win8), you would probably see way better response. I have only ever tried running windows -> vmware -> windows once, and I was very unhappy with the performance as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Ok, so here is the fix: I went into the folder where the VM is stored and opened the .vmx file in notepad. Look through it and there is a line in there that is as follows: svga.vramSize = "16777216" That is the size of the vram in bytes. 16mb ftl haha So I upped it to 256mb - svga.vramSize = "268435456" And now it is pretty snappy Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
