Virtual PC 2007: Timing Issues

Source: microsoft.public.virtualpc

Message:

Hello,

I experience timing issues on all my virtual machines. Randomly the guest OS
runs slower or faster (can be seen by the speed of the mouse pointer or
animated status indicators). When using VmWare Server it works as expected,
but because everybody in our company uses Virtual PC this is not an option.
Is this a known issue?

Host OS: Vista Business (32 Bit)
Guest OS: Windows Server 2003, SP1, Virtual PC additions installed, 1GB RAM
assigned
Hardware: Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz, 2GB RAM, VT enabled (Lenovo Thinkpad T60)

Any suggestions on this?

Regards,
