Several xp guests slowing my vista host

Post by msimurin »

Hey guys, can you please suggest me the reasons what could this be

I only added 256 ram to each guest, everything minimum but still it slows my host that much that i cant play games

I got

vista 64 host, 2MB ram, 4870x2

Any tips how to have several guests(which do just basic stuff that doesnt need much memory and speed) while still being able to have strong host for playing games?

2MB ram
Now I see why it's so slow... :lol:

I'm going to assume that's a typo. We need more hardware information, but I'm going to guess that you need better hardware to run several XP guests at the same time.
