asdcarvalho Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Hello, I installed OS X through VmWare, and I'm thinking it's TOO slow (iTunes can't play a song). How can I speed it up? I've already done some research and none of the tips I found were effective. Does someone knows how can I make it quicker? asdcarvalho Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64341-slow-vmware/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyhighmac Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 -Store the virtual machine in a hard drive/partition separate from where Windows is installed -Set the guestOS line in the VMX file to guestOS=darwin -Disable all serial, parallel, and floppy controllers in VMware BIOS (part of installation procedure above) -If it exists, delete the AppleTPMACPI.kext file in System/Library/Extensions -Disable Dock Magnification -Try this (apparently it speeds up the system): type in platform=X86PC at boot prompt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64341-slow-vmware/#findComment-455527 Share on other sites More sharing options...
