Just started ~2 weeks ago. Almost everything I do in Win7 takes 20 - 30 seconds to respond. If I aggravate it enough with the mouse button, it will say 'Not Res...'. Eventually it works and all is OK until I go to the Desktop to do something else. I have no energy saving things enabled - never turn off the drive - never turn off the monitor. I've had this config for ~18 months, first problem. IMac 27" 3.2GHz Late 2013 - OS 10.10.3 - Win 7 - Parallels 10 TIA Ski
Hi Ski52, Please follow the steps suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/112091 to improve virtual machine performance on your Mac.
Hi Ram... Sorry it took so long to reply. I have done as you asked. I even went as far as deleting Avast. they seem to have gotten real invasive lately. Nothing has changed. I think maybe I should try to reinstall Win 7. This may have started after a M$ upgrade. Other suggestions before I try that? Thanx for your help Ski (does RAM have anything to do with your vehicle?)
I just completed running a program called Tweaking (dot) com - Windows Repair that may have taken care of whatever problem I had. I came to Parallels cuz the Mac didn't have any problems, just the Win side. I had a rather nasty adware malware a short while ago, and the repairs included a multitude of programs. Evidently a Win file was obliterated at the time. The above program may have restored it. I'll let it run for a few and see..... Thanx again Ski
