Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / July 2004video and sound stuttering
I have recently bought Virtual pc xp for my mac, its a g3 with a 700mhz processor, 20gigs harddrive and 356ram. when i play videos, both the picture and sound stutter. Is there anything anyone can advise me with. Its a known issue, VPC isn't a multimedia solution, your Mac is the best solution. Adding more RAM, 1GB or better and a faster G4 cpu will reduce it, but will not eliminate it completely. >I have recently bought Virtual pc xp for my mac, its a g3 with a >700mhz processor, 20gigs harddrive and 356ram. when i play videos, >both the picture and sound stutter.

On the Apple menu, point to Control Panels, and then click Memory. 2 You have to click off under Virtual Memory. 3 Quit the file menu. 4 And restart the Macintosh computer. |
