I don't need to switch screen mode at all, I use Unity all the time, though of course the machine does boot in windowed mode at first. I'm getting this problem too, on a new Mac Pro. No problem! I'll try to provide some more useful information if I can narrow it down. What version of tools are you running? You can get this by going to the VMware System tray in the guest os and then going to the about tab.

I've been using other Vista and XP VMs on the same machine and haven't noticed the issue there yet, but these are also pretty vanilla installs used for software testing.Ĥ. If you have access to another Windows VM, does it happen with the same frequency on that VM as well? When I'd seen the issue previously I'd been using mostly Visual Studio, Outlook, Google Chrome, and a proprietary VPN client.ģ. I'm paying more attention to what I'm doing now to try and narrow it down. I haven't seen the issue from just having the VM up for some period of time. Each time I've noticed the issue it was after working in the VM for a while and then switching away to another application - in looking back at the VM's window later I'd notice that the CPU was pegged in task manager. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a reproducible scenario yet. How long is the VM usually running before you notice the problem? Does it happen in 5 minutes / an hour / after you leave it running overnight? Is there anything that makes this more or less likely to happen? You say you are seeing this pretty frequently. I also replaced the virtual IDE disk created during import with a virtual SCSI disk using Acronis.Ģ. In case this is significant, this is an imported Parallels VM (Parallels Tools uninstalled before import). What guest os are you running (Windows XP / Vista?) What service pack?

#PARALLELS CLIENT PROCESSOR PEGGED UPDATE#
The second I started another update to Tools it jumped to 98%.ĭropped down after install using modify. I just noticed that the CP Usage dropped down to less than 10%. I will check back later this morning and see. I will copy that vm and bring it home tonight and see what I can see. I have a machine at Work that has a VM on it. VM ware is still telling me to update Tools from the Vm ware drop down menu.Īlmost impossible to do anything on in VM. Have update VMware tools stays at version Version e.x.p, build-107508. VMware tools has been removed using VMware tools using Add and Remove. VMware tools has been installed and updated. In face the Application Data folder does not exist. Takes forever to get to the desktop.Ĭ:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware Toolsĭoesn't exist on my vm. Mine jumps to 100% upon startup of the VM.
