Parallels Install Slows Leopard Drastically

Last week I installed parallels on my Wife's Hackintosh, and the next day the computer was running very poorly. Moving the mouse was glitchy, the dock would take up to ten seconds to respond, to clicks, etc. All these problems are present whether parallels is actually started or not. I have been suspecting a bad hard drive, but have not had time to work on it. I did not suspect Parallels until today, when I installed it on my Hackintosh at work, and immediately had the same problem. The system was running so poorly, I couldn't even eject the image. After a reboot I was able to uninstall the program, and things are running perfectly again. Both computers are using Intel Motherboards (1 a P945 and 1 a P965) using pentium D processors and 2GB of RAM. I am using the Jan 18th build of parallels. The software runs fine on my macbook, so I am kind of at a loss. Has anyone already experienced this issue and come up with a fix?

 

Thanks for any input.
