Windows 7 64 bit host works very slowly after discontinuation of VMWare Workstation

I am running 64 bit Windows 7 on a Dell laptop with an i7, 6 GB ram and VMWare Workstation 9 processor. Everything works well on the host and the VM, while the virtual machine is powered on but after the suspension of the virtual machine and station work out of the system host becomes very slow and applications become desensitized. This lasts for several minutes after the stoppage of work. In general, I have executed only a VM at a time, but even when I got a couple of them run both the host system and they are very sensitive. I started the task with great difficulty Manager when this occurs to see if I can see problems with the free time of processors and memory use, and everything seems fine. So far all my research turned discussions about this kind of problem during execution of the virtual machine so I am at a loss to know even where to go next to make this diagnosis.

Kind regards

Bruce Brandt

This is because windows is the collection of memory the vmware used in the system and marking of these blocks of memory piece by piece as 'free '. If you shutted down of the virtual machine (not paused) then the memory can be returned to the system immediately. I guess if it was caused by the Intel RST driver because I noticed about there is also no question AMD computer used by my colleague.

You can wait until the stops of HDD-light, keeping the stats of light, constant in the meantime try avoid to activate any application of consumption-e/s disk / operations.

  • Ubuntu 11.04 very slow after upgrade to VMWare Workstation 8.0

    Hello

    After the update to VMWare Workstation 8.0 my Ubuntu 11.04 comments system (which worked very well with Workstation 7) behaves very slow sometimes.

    Slowly I want to say first that it is very laggy when I scroll conent inside windows, and also when I move windows.

    And with sometimes I want to say that this is not always the case. Sometimes, everything works fine for 1 or 2 hours and she begins and, sometimes, that's the problem immediately after starting Ubuntu.

    The problem occurs when restart Ubuntu does not help. But what is stopping Ubuntu and also restart VMWare Workstation on the host (in my case Windows 7) completely. When I do this and I'm lucky everything seems normal again for a while (1 or 2 hours). After that starts all over again.

    VMWare Tools is installed and the comments system has more then enough resources. I also improved the virtuale image to the latest version so that the new features in Workstation 8.0 are available.

    I first thought that maybe it's a RAM problem but the system begins to lag when there is still 1 GB + RAM available and 0.0% swap used.

    Any ideas what I could do? This is quite annoying...

  • USB HDD TRAY 1, 5 t: = red light drive lights works very slowly

    Hello

    It is brand new USB STORE 1, 5 t 3.5 "disk.

    Drive normally begins with the red light, initialize and move to blue light. Initially drive works slow - flashing blue when something happens.

    ... but after a few minutes of use, red light may turn on a moment (for e.g. when new folder is created or some files are copied - then drive works very slowly - it appears when you copy).

    After a few seconds, record going to the blue back light - and everything is OK until the switch next to the red.

    1 is this normal behavior?
    2. What is the meaning of red light when the drive is working?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    I m no owner of this HARD but I have a theory.
    According to your information, I think that the red light only appears if data would be written to the HARD disk.
    The blue light appears during the reading of data from the HARD drive.

  • Portege R100: 4GB SD card works very slowly-> unable to format

    Laptop works fine, no problem when using 1 GB SD card. What SD 4 GB inserted PC card works very slowly. Finally, I am able to run the software Toshiba Format SD memory card (download the latest version). It does not seem to recognize the card of 4 GB. Unable to format. When later tried with 1 GB card, everything works fine.

    If someone was able to get a 4 GB SD card?

    I'm not sure if the laptop software needs a patch, or if the 4 GB card is not fully compatible with SD cards standards, however it was purchased from reputable suppliers.

    Graham

    Hello

    I think that it s nothing wrong with the software, but the SD card is simply not compatible 100%.
    In recent times, the SD card sizes are rising rapidly.
    I think that the card reader and the software were not intended to manage this big SD card like this.

    How to buy an external SD card reader?
    These devices are not very expensive and I think the new generation should be able to also handle 4 GB SD cards.

    I can't be sure of what you said, but it looks like it is very
    probably that you are infected with malware.

    I expect to for Windows 10 for the kernel is not very different when I upgraded I lost my homegroup when I upgraded the machine that created the homegroup key has been lost and the machine was not part of the home group.  My display device drivers needed to be updated after the upgrade for my poster work properly. A pilot to ditch virtual use to connect my Surface Pro 3 as a third screen was not functional. Remove and reinstall it solved this problem.  Everything else seems to work well.   If you do not bind the user accounts on your machine to Microsoft accounts these user will be second class but spy with less.  Things like Cortana, people, installing applications, and others require you and Microsoft accounts allowing Microsoft to collect information...

    If you look at the web there is little negative feedback of those is upgraded and something like 14 million have updated.   Only the stars of the press sensation are their stories, that you should take them for what they are worth.  Its their job to make new worthy or not.

  • Security Essentials works very well after installation, but when I turn the computer off it does not start at the top. That you uninstall that reinstall. Who is wrong?

Antivirus programs have been removed from my computer; That is to say. Norton Antivirus, Symantec Antivirus. Firewall doesn't seem to have this effect on the operation of Security Essentials.

    Hello

    Did you change your computer before this problem?

    A possible reason for this problem is that you have installed entirely or partially on the computer security software conflict.

  • Satellite Pro A10 with XP SP2 works very slowly

    I have a Satellite Pro A10; 256 RAM with 18 GB of HARD drive. (In think it was sold as a nominal 20GB).
    It's not particularly loaded with the software, even if the HD is about 90% full and is used primarily for surfing the Internet and word processing. It runs very slowly and has been making slower and slower.

    Click on an item oin the Start Menu, for example to open IE and takes literally 10 to 20 minutes to open the window under construction very slowly... really!

    I have Norton Internet Security and Norton System Works and the different uses do not find anything wrong, they report. Speed disk to run after a month, but also the system scans for viruses.

    I'm going back to the top upgrade RAM 1024 and also believe that a BIOS update is available but do not know how this will change the performance, or not at all.

    I know there must be other things I need to do to improve the speed. It is virtually unusable at the moment.

    What tests can I do to pin point problems and then how can I fix?

    Hello

    In recent years, I've used the Norton Internet Security and I was not satisfied. The point is that it is a good security tool, but it significantly slows down the performance of the computer laptop or computer. Now, I m using the freeware antivirus software called AntiVir.

    I see your computer laptop support only 256 MB of RAM. It is certainly not sufficient to use the Win XP smoothly.
    Other reasons could be overloaded HDD.

    Due to the low value of RAM, the laptop uses the area on the HARD disk for paging. Paging is an important part of virtual memory. It allows to use the HARD drive for data that does not fit in physical RAM.

    All of these are responsible by the performance of your laptop.

    By the way; It is perhaps also a time for a new installation of the OS.

  • How to uninstall Windows 7 32 bit or get the clean install of Windows 7 64 bit to work properly.

    Today, I bought and installed windows 7 32 bit as an upgrade from vista 32-bit, shortly after I spoke to my friend and he told me that I could have used the disk for 64-bit and Windows 7 64 bit instead, the problem now is that I can't find a way to remove windows 7 32 bits using other methods I've seen here as the file Windows.old, it isn't here. Also I cannot perform a clean Windows 7 32-bit to windows 7 64 bit installation because when I insert the disk it says that I need to boot from the disk, so I tried then whenever he says failed to load. IM fine with doing a clean install and losing what I have, because I have them the settings and files saved externally already so no need to save again.

    Thank you very much

    Mango

    Looks like you're stuck with a clean install of Vista's original support for start.
