I've been using VMWare Fusion on my MBA 2010 13" since january without a problem, been able to run a virtual machine side by side with pretty much no performance impact on either system which is great. I was even able to emulate the Playstation 2 console within a virtual machine at a quite playable speed. Up until now.
While running the virtual machine the whole system lags to a halt, right now im typing and it takes another 2-6 seconds for the words to appear on the screen its absolutely unusable. I'm stumped because i haven't changed anything within windows which is whats on the virtual machine i even made a brand new installation. As var as i know i haven't changed the version of VMWare and i've been on 10.6.7 for a while without issues, plus recently restored my system.
So does anyone have any idea of what I can do to check /fix/investigate further to fix this issue? I should note i "felt" some sort of slower performance with the system but it might be my imagination. Also not to mention, this system is behaving like the cpu is being used at 100% its even faster than this when i'm converting videos which makes the fan whirl loudly, its not even on right now which puzzles me to what the issue is.
Thanks in advance,
Kris
