[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 954787, member: 37647"] First of all, decrease the number of processors to 2. More processors means more overhead and that causes lag. Second of all, I don't think you told us what the host OS is? In my experience, Windows 10 host + Windows 10 guest is always slow. Linux host runs Win10 guest much faster. Third of all, I don't think you told us where the VM is stored -- the same partition as the host, the same disk, a different disk? If you have a linux host and the guest is on a NTFS partition, that can cause slowness. Also, if the disk with the guest on it has a slow connection, such as a USB device, that is surely going to effect speed. If it is a network connection, I haven't tried it personally, but I heard from IT workers that it causes lag. Fourth of all, try disabling "Enable 3d accleration". If all else fails, try VMware Workstation Player. It works better out of the box and is much more user-friendly. [/QUOTE]
