    Default Going too slow...

    Well I just installed a TinyXP VM Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 on my decently fast computer. I installed Java, eliteswitch, flash, etc. But when I start a runescape applet, it loads but goes EXTREMELY slow. Like, I can barely login, and when I do I can't even click on anything and the screen changed like every 5 seconds. What can I do to make it actually be able to do something?

    Yeah, you need Virtual Machine additions. To do this, click action>Install Virtual Machine Additions. Then go to your desktop. Go to My Computer. I think it's in the 'CD-ROM' drive thing, but anyways, click on the thing that says something like 'vmadditions'. Then follow the installation proccess. If that doesn't help, try giving the VM some more RAM.

    Can you not download the additions from online and install it?

    if you want the vm additions you can find it by clicking file-vm additions, it should autostart, if not click start-computer and doubleclick vm additions

    as for your internet, try restarting the vpc or restarting your computer

    if that still doesnt work, try going into the vpc, clicking edit-settings-networking, and under networking adapters, try each one other than not connected and local only

    if even that doesnt work, reinstall?? it is most likely an issue with the network connection bridge

    Does adding more ram increase the speed in any way?

    yes it does because runescape can take up to 100mbs of ram at any given time

    Yes. How much ram does your real comp have? How much did you give to the vm?
