UMDSmith Posted July 19, 2012 Report 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
SnowDrifter Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report 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
