cchalogamer Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 10-4 but, What affect does that have on folding performance? Same as having it set low in windows...It just lets other processes use the CPU when they need it and it uses the rest I've personally been doing that from day 2 of SMP folding, The only time I ever shutdown VMware on one of the Core 2 systems (4300 in sig is now a 6400 btw, need to update that later...) is occasionaly when I'm playing an 8 man Company of hereos game, that's jsut bc of ram usage ~1.3GB for the game, ~400 for Ubuntu, not much left for TS, trillian, Opera, etc so it sometiems causes that undesired sluggishness there, however I could drop VMware ram back and eliminate that problem aswell. With the Opty 165 however VMware seemd to increase the possibility of crashing in manhy newer/demanding games CoH/Oblivion/etc. I havent tried setting up EMIII with it yet...to lazy i suppose plus i just look at the two Core 2s and the Server I generally assume it's workign with an occasional login for something else with a check of CPU usage. I might try it later though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratch Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 I am having trouble getting the VMWare client to power up on my AMD 2x64 3800+ system. Sometimes it does and most times it doesn't. It also hangs occasionally on my E6400 until I reboot my pc also...any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC10281982B Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 I tried playing HL2-EP1 with vmware running, set to low. It was a disaster. Had to reboot my rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had no problems, until I wanted to copy some files out of VMware to windows, but thats more due to the fact that I'm a linux n00blet and not VMwares fault.
