Slow performance XP guest with guest additions

Post by Quartlow »

Ever since I installed the guest additions the XP guest is really performing slow.

The only reason I installed them was to get higher resolutions.
Could really care less about the the other features oh though sharing of files would be nice.

So far I've tried

Booting with " nohz=off"
This helped some but google sketchup is still pretty much useless

Toggling enable VT-x/AMD-V and IO APIC have no effect one way or the other.

Gave it 128 meg of video memory, that did nothing
512 meg of memory did nothing Going above 512 actually makes it worse :roll:

Any ideas?
