CoolBook (OSX) and RMClock Pro (WinXP) used with Parallel Desktop

Hi! I am currently using CoolBook with my MacBook to undervoltage it to improve the battery power.

It is running without problem with Parallels Desktop for Mac.

I also noticed that there is RMClock Pro for the WinXP.

My question is can I use it also together with the CoolBook?

Any suggestion from Parallels team? To use or not to use the RMClock Pro?

How about the WinXP system speedup and improvement utilities such as CPU/Cache/RAM Disk... together with Parallels Desktop for Mac?

TIA!

 

RMClock Pro -no , can cause Windows crash

1. Set memory for Virtual Machine to less than 1 GB
2. Perform Mac and Windows side disk defragmentation http://www.xvsxp.com/system/system_tools_defrag.php
3. Set Adjust memory limit from Auto to Manual at Parallels Desktop -Preferences-Memory, and set limit a bit more higher than VM memory
4. Disable Themes in Windows XP serives.msc stop Themes service
5. If you are running in Coherence, try to switch to Single Window, or lower Mac resolution
6. Some antivirus software can load CPU when Heuristic Prediction is set, or Tamper protection (Symantec, MacAffey), adjust settings to risk you are supposed, high security settings is not always good idea, as it can also affect software running
7. Run msconfig , and disable unneeded startup items
See http://www.netsquirrel.com/msconfig/msconfig_xp.html
8. Make sure that no VNC,or remote desktop connection is established to Mac, this can slowdown Parallels Desktop
9. Optimize computer experience for best performance
