| | Vista guest - DVD access is slow under XP host It seems DVD access is extremely under Vista 32 guest running under XP 32 host. Vista itself seems to run fine but installation of Office 2007 from DVD takes FOREVER. I use VPC 2007. VPC additions are installed (I used additions that come with VPC 2007) Any ideas? Maybe I need to use different VPC additions? |
