Sage Line 50 / Windows 7 / Virtual Box

Post by enigin »

Hi,
For some time I have been running Sage Line 50 accounting software in a Windows 7 environment using Virtual Box 4.2.4 r81684 on a Macbook Pro itself running OS X 10.6.8.
The Sage data is held on a colleague's Windows machine on an office network and apart from being a bit slow, the setup has worked OK.
Recently, slow has become very, very slow with my machine taking an age to access data. Typically if I try to generate a report, Sage will hang and I will need to crash out of the system.
Anybody come across something similar?
Thanks in advance.
Enigin.
