Hello,
I recently installed Fusion 7.01 on my MacPro to run Windows 7 for the purposes of using some software that is only available on Windows. The video performance is extremely clunky when compared to a PC of nominally similar or even reduced capacity to the virtual machine I've built.
MacPro Specifications:
2.7GHz 12-core Xeon E5
64GB 1867MHz DDR3
Dual AMD FirePro D700 6144MB
OSX 10.9.5
Virtual Machine Specifications:
8 processor cores
49152MB Memory
2048MB Shared graphics memory
The video rendering performance, as well as the general feel of any program execution, is extremely clunky. I'm not even able to complete a Windows Experience Index assessment.
Any and all help for a novice of novices user in setting up the machine to perform well would be extremely appreciated. It seems as though given the machine I'm using, I should be able to have a respectable Windows experience for even modestly resource demanding applications.
Thank you kindly for any and all help.
Cheers.
