Like others I have read, have the issue with high disk utilization a couple times a day using Vmplayer. I have done all the suggestions removed from virus scaning, etc but that does not help. This is more an inconvience that a real issue BUT now I am experience every 2 to 3 reboots on the guest OS 100% utilization of the CPU and an unsuable VM session. I have tried to let it set to clear but it does not so so, the only solution is to shutdown the guest OS which has taken 1 to 2 hours to complete. Once this is done the next boot usually the problem issue goes away but then a couple reboots later it happens again. I have check the logs on the guest OS (winxp sp3) and I see no errors. If I attempt a reset. The problem remains with the next boot so I have to let it do complete shutdown. Anyone else ever see 100% cpu utilization in the guest OS? Right now I have switched to Virtual PC as I cant have this type of downtime on the guest OS machine but it has issues with directory/disk sharing so I would like to get back to using VMplayer
Any thought or help would be greatly appreciated.
