Programs freeze with Fusion 2.0.5 and XP sp2

Hi-

Similar to a previous post re: Dragon, I constantly have a problem with several freezing programs ("not responding") whenever I run them in XP sp2 in Fusion 2.0.5 (using Mac OS X v 10.5.7) the only way to get out of it is to force stop merger. My feeling is that it is a Windows problem, but no physical evidence. Programs that freeze include Quickbooks 2009, Sound Forge. Everything works SLOW. When you try to stop the merger, I get an error message that a script has failed.

I think I want to completely get rid of the merger, XP and all responsible for programs on a virtual computer and do a clean install on the whole. Question - if I use the application to uninstall in Fusion, it get rid of all the associated programs and recover disk space?

This file is the entire virtual machine.  By deleting this file, you delete all that it contains, including all programs.  When this file is gone, there will be no trace of your VM of windows on your computer.  Although, as I said just make sure to save all the files you want.

  • Linux host freezes with 10.0.6 Workstation and Windows 7 comments

    Hello


    I am now quite desperate because it is really preventing me from doing my job.


    I deleted Windows and I installed a fresh Kubuntu 14.04.02 (LTS) with 64 bit under my desk. I also installed VMWare Workstation 10.0.6 to run my development machines. I am now having serious problems:


    Every now and then, my full host is the gel if I'm running a Windows 7 virtualized on my workstation. The mouse only moves very slow and all the windows are very (!) slow response. My CPU monitor list all 4 CPU to 100%. If I managed to open the monitor system (or top on the console), I can see that vmware-vmx and kwin burn most of my CPU resources. If I wait 10 seconds to a minute, the system becomes usable. Now CPU goes down to normal. But as soon as I start to move a window (any one), the thing is happening again.


    Symptoms in short:

    • HOST: Linux Kubuntu 14.04.02 (x 64) on Intel i5 CPU with 8 GB of RAM and running on SSD (ext4).
    • COMMENTS: Several Windows 7 (x 32) several software running. Assigned 1 CPU and 1 GB of RAM. It comes on several guest computers.
    • Every now and then, all my CPU taking nearly 100% 4. The host CPU is used by vmware-vmx and kwin (used above) processes. Sometimes after 15 minutes, sometimes directly after turning on the prompt. No idea on reason.
    • Host of mouse, Windows, and OS works very very slow.
    • Meanwhile, Windows 7 virtual machine is inactive! Energy saving or screen saver are all off!
    • If I manage to run Taskmanager guests, I don't see an action (sometimes TaskManager itself using 60% of CPU!). Looks to me that the host is down, not comments!
    • My host is running an SSD (256 GB).
    • VM log file does not show something during this phase.
    • VMware.log attached.


    What I tried:

    • I disabled 'Accelerate 3D' for all my virtual machines.
    • I have re-installed VMWare Tools on the guest computers.
    • I run VMWare workstation with vblank_mode = 0/usr/bin/vmware
    • I recreated the machine with less hardware as possible and recharged the .vmd.
    • I converted to virtual prior to the current format format disk image (VMWare asked me to the front step, I said 'yes').
    • I have inserted a separate network card (NIC) and disabled the network card that is embedded in the BIOS.
    • I disabled the onboard graphics in the BIOS and added a card NVIDIA GeForce 8400 PCIx16 (using NVIDIA binary drivers provided by Kubuntu).
    • I removed the CD-ROM of the virtual, Audio computer, diskettes and any unused material.
    • I have tried using cpulimit strangle vmware-vmx and kwin on my host, but without success. System remains unusable in this situation.

    No success at all.

    Is there anything else I can do to put my environment in a productive state? You can imagine that this always happens in the worst situations :-(

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    I found this page:

    Disqus - Arch Linux becomes insensitive to khugepaged

    It seems that this did the trick!

    I ran (as root):

    never echo >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

    madvise echo >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

    Since then, everything works fine. :-)

    I click on the links in the email and get a box that says: "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" and the link cannot be opened.

    Suggestions;

    1. make sure that your e-mail program is your default program.

    2. make sure that your Internet Explorer, or your main browser has all its faults.

    You can do both of the above by following these steps...

    Start button > right column, click default programs > click Set Your Default programs...

    1. click on your e-mail program > it doesn't say "this program has all its defaults"?
    If not, click on choose by default for this program > check all boxes below the list > click on save when finished.

    2 do the same as above for your Internet Explorer, or your main browser.

    Original title: Weird problem.

    My computer says it is connected to the network and the network is connected to the internet, but I can't access what whether the internet associated with such sites as Web and other programs which require an internet connection. I have reset the router and the computer many times and the problem is still there. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Very strange that this issue has been raised suddenly and even system restore back the working time is not solve it.  At this point, I suspect something mischievous because restoration of return must be a guaranteed fix.  If it worked on Friday, it should work if restore you backup on Friday.

    I ask you to check if your network card has got an update which could have features broke, but that can't be the problem because the restoration of return would be handed over the old version.

    Indeed, using restore in a working time essentially says that this isn't a configuration problem, because configuration is in a known-to-be-working state (because he worked at the restored time).

    I would therefore start at this stage, verification of hardware, antenna, connections, equipment devices.
