Hello,
I timed it. Starting windows takes 10 minutes. No doubt my hard drive is being accessed like crazy. Once windows 7 is started, I click Firefox. That takes 60 seconds to launch.
I have 4gb of ram and a 2.8 ghz macbook pro.
I have allocated 1 core and 2 gb of ram to the VM. I have a 7200 rpm hard drive
Is this a disk defrag problem? I thought macs don't need to have that done, and I have over 100 gb of free hard disk space. Would appreciate some help and a definitive word as to why I'm seeing this behavior. Do I need to nuke my hard drive and reinstall everything?
Thanks
