View 4.6 slow on Windows 7 SP1

Helle everybody,

i have got a Problem with windows 7 and SP1 using Internet Explorer 9.

When i connect my Windows 7 using VMWARE View the speed ist normal.

When i start IE9 everything is more than slow. I can't close it then.

What can i do?

When i use another VD - XP it works but not on Windows 7.

Using Windows 7 SP1 host and VM.

VM is running on ESX -> Agent 4.6

Excuse my bad english.

Greetings.

Welcome to the forums Mafin.    Have you checked the resources of the VDI machine after opening IE9.  Could be a case where IE9 is saturating one of the resources and simply slowing the machine down.

Thanks for your help and your Welcome Smiley Wink

I have to compelete my first Posting.

The problem  occurs when I am using VM-View over VPN where the connection is UMTS/HSPA.

When I connect the same way and use a Win XP machine, i don't have any problems.

Well i have to correct something.

I installed all Windows updates, on VD and View Client Computer. Now it works much better. But not as fast as on Win XP.

View Client = Win7  -> Where the Agent is installed / XP -> FAST

View Client = Win7 -> Where the Agent is installed / Win7 -> Not that fast.

What can i do to optimize the connection speed?

I have noticed this happening also on View 4.5 with W7 (with latest updates).

Sometimes when i run IE (non thinapped) cpu goes up to 100% and the only thing that works is shutting down the VDI client ungracefully and then restarting.

In thinapped IE version this is not happening.

I never tried the Thinapped version. Well okay, VMware has to correct something.

Or does anybody know a way how to fix it?
