I have two problems with the current beta. 1. Resuming a Windows VM doesn't always work. In fact it usually fails now. This didn't happen with the last beta. Maybe it is just VERY slow? 2. The new applications feature really slows down the VM. Whenever I quit a program in Windows I get the beachball. It takes about 10 seconds before the VM reacts again. I find that this problem can be solved by installing the Parallels tools without the applications/Dock feature. Anybody any ideas?
Same problem, same workaround Yes! Thank you. This had been plaguing me since updating to 3106 a few days ago (MBP C2D). I thought the frequent 5 second beachballs were happening more than just when closing WinXP apps, but reinstalling Tools without the Favorite Applications feature eliminated the problem.
