    Community,

    I have Win 7 installed on a recent MacBook Pro with 8G and 3G/1 processor allocated to the VM with Parallels tools installed.

    Everytime you access "documents" in Windows there is a 5-7 second delay and non-responding. Then the access is quick, but then it gets slow again. It seems like these virtual folders drives are waiting for a virtual network timeout before responding or resolving.

    A google search suggested checking out the hosts file in WIndows -- mine is fine.

    Is there a way to speed this up?

    Thanks,

    G
