Very slow in windows xp

That was one of the steps I've already tried. Intergration Services does not like the Statndard PC setting. A fellow MVP and myself are leaning toward a possible hardware issue. I am curious. Do you have a similar server that you could possibly install a different hypervisor on? Possibly use XenServer. This would help identify if the issue is specific to Hyper-V in some way, or possibly resides at the lower hardware layer. I have seen one similar issue that I am trying to get more information on.

There is nothing out of the ordinary about these servers. Fibre Storage. Server is fully update to date wtih every firmware updated to the latest available. Hi, Actually, VMware server is not based on hypervisor. Best Regards, Vincent Hu. Monday, October 12, AM. Monday, October 12, PM. Hi, It seems that there are some misunderstanding, what I mean is to change the physical CPU for the host machine and then test whether you get the same bad performance on Windows XP VMs.

Until I do that, performance sucks in regards to mouse operation on ESX. This may have changed since R2. Perhaps the Integration Components change this setting for us, and thus my post won't help you. I don't currently have a Hyper-V running to check this out for this post.

Rich P. I came upon this thread while starting a new question and saw the "Related Topics" appear. Very cool. The XP on Hyper-V just jumped out at me. Also, line breaks in these posts sometimes get erratic when retyping into previous paragraphs.

An example is the line break after the word "Settings" above, and the period after "ESX4" occurring on a separate line. Once submitted this may correct itself. I am just re-editted this to advise it did get fixed after submitting it. Friday, December 11, PM. To prevent any confusion among people who come to this thread in the future, it is a fact that there are certain processors that are flawed.

With certain older processors, it is impossible to get good performance from bit XP virtual machines. Changing Hardware Acceleration settings doesn't change the fact that certain older processors need to be replaced. Problems have been reported with both AMD and Intel processors - but limited to only a few specific models.

Please understand that the vast majority of processors are just fine. For those of you who want to delve into the details of this problem, if you want the abridged version to save time, focus on the posts from Microsoft, me, Brian Ehlert, and forums username hughescj. Saturday, December 12, AM. Is there a definitive list of the processors exhibiting problems? Thursday, January 7, PM.

I am following up on your request. Thursday, February 11, PM. It would be nice if there is a list of processors that have been known to cause issues. Friday, March 26, PM. Tuesday, April 6, PM.

I faced this problem when I using dynamic disk. After convert to fixed disk, my WinXP run as normal. Wednesday, April 28, PM.

I'll try once my Hper-v machine is up. I have a simalar problem but if i add my user account to schema admins the xp virtual pc runs nice and fast like before.

See :- viewtopic. It's a pity you installed XP with only one core though. You have a 4 core host, so you could have given it two. People are not used to single core lag any more. Re: Windows XP very slow by mpack » Sat May 05, am Well, that would certainly be a problem if it was the only suggestion instead of a minor aside.

Lots of it. Unfortunately Windows XP has some design flaws that cause it to get bogged down by all that data you are creating. As your My Documents and Program Files folders grow over time, Windows XP has more and more things to keep track of…more things to keep in mind so to speak…and this causes it to inevitably slow down.

The problem is not entirely with the operating system alone though. As with any complicated system, there are multiple layers that contribute to the problem and to get to a solution a multi-tiered approach is required.

Here is my check-list of things that will speed up Windows XP and the reasons they work. Click OK. Right-click My Computer and select Manage. If you want a faster computer, turn indexing off. As your disk fills up with data blocks, reaching the bits you want takes more seek time. Additionally, modern hard drives typically have larger amounts of cache allowing your drive to spend less time seeking platters to retrieve the data you want now.

They are slow performers. Go Western Digital Black for best performance. Most new hard drives come with software that will allow you to clone your existing disk to the new one in 30 minutes or less. Installing Applications and browsing the web creates temporary files. For a while they help you do things faster, but XP has no mechanism for deleting stale temp files, so they just pile up. When enough of these files exist, XP performance will be impacted.

CCleaner is a free utility that can pear down the amount of temporary files on your system using the C leaner tab. Here are the relatively safe options I tend to select for clearing temp data using CCleaner :. CCleaner can also help you pear down your start-up items. These are generally programs that run when your computer starts and end up in the notification area or background. Windows Services are service applications that run behind the scenes and allow your computer do to everything from browsing the internet to sharing files and folders.

There are Windows services those services are part of the XP operating system and third party application services installed by some applications. Many of these third party application services are not critical for your computer to function and some will hamper performance.

The Services management dialog allows you to start, stop, enable and disable various services. Do not modify these services:. NOTE: As a good rule of thumb, I usually set services not part of the list above to Manual before completely disabling anything. This way the service is not completely blocked from working, just blocked from starting automatically with your computer.

Apple device and helper services are a good example services that fall in this category. Microsoft has chosen not to force developers to use a single standardized installer, so some applications uninstall cleanly and some leave lots items behind. IObit uninstaller is a great free tool to cleanup files left behind by poorly developed uninstallers. As you create data on your computer, it stores files in random unoccupied spots on the hard disk.

Over time as your disk becomes more and more utilized, the random placement of all these files also known as fragmentation will become an issue that can affect XP performance. Defragmenting the hard drive means organizing data randomly stored on your hard drive into contiguous blocks and optimizing free space. This should be done quarterly.

Manual Local System Alerter Notifies selected users and computers of administrative alerts. If the service is stopped, programs that use administrative alerts will not receive them.

If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start. If this service is stopped, out-of-process requests will not be processed. If this service is disabled, this computer will not be able to use the Automatic Updates feature or the Windows Update Web site.

If the service is stopped, features such as Windows Update, and MSN Explorer will be unable to automatically download programs and other information.

If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it may fail to transfer files if they do not have a fail safe mechanism to transfer files directly through IE in case BITS has been disabled. If the service is stopped, ClipBook Viewer will not be able to share information with remote computers. If the service is stopped, SENS will close and will not be able to provide logon and logoff notifications. Manual Local System Computer Browser Maintains an updated list of computers on the network and supplies this list to computers designated as browsers.

If this service is stopped, this list will not be updated or maintained. Automatic Local System Cryptographic Services Provides three management services: Catalog Database Service, which confirms the signatures of Windows files; Protected Root Service, which adds and removes Trusted Root Certification Authority certificates from this computer; and Key Service, which helps enroll this computer for certificates.

If this service is stopped, these management services will not function properly. Started Automatic Local System Distributed Transaction Coordinator Coordinates transactions that span multiple resource managers, such as databases, message queues, and file systems.

If this service is stopped, these transactions will not occur. If this service is stopped, this computer will not be able to resolve DNS names and locate Active Directory domain controllers. Started Automatic Network Service Error Reporting Service Allows error reporting for services and applications running in non-standard environments.

This service cannot be stopped.
