XP problem with high loads


Recommended Posts

I am virtualizing XP with KVM on linux, and I am having a lot of problems with it. My host is not the problem and has more than enough CPU and RAM to support my VM. So I believe the problem is with XP itself. My users are connecting via RDC of course. But I have people who are complaining about their VMs locking up and just being generally laggy, and even after they reboot their VMs they are still experiencing the problem. Some say they cannot login to their VMs for about 20 minute periods when it gets really bad. Also a lot of them are saying when their VM gets laggy, their cpu will say a high load average from 60-80%, even when all of their applications are closed and only the standard XP services/background processes are running. Does anyone know what's wrong here? or where I should start looking?
