Stardock's Impulse - 100% CPU Usage

Post by jagdpanther »

Using VirtualBox 3.0.4, 64-bit Linux Host, I installed Stardock's Impulse within a WindowsXP guest. (32-bit, SP3 with latest patches.) Impulse installed without issue. However, when I run Impulse and the main window opens, none of the 'buttons' work and VirtualBox is showing 100% CPU usage.

Impulse is Stardock's on-line software distribution program.

Does anyone know how to get Impulse working within a WinXP guest?

http://stardock.com Then click on 'Download Impulse"

Thanks
