Hyper V guest machine so slow!

[SteveHubbard]

Guys, need help on this....

Im running server 2008 enterprise with hyper v role. The Guest machine which is running 3CX is Windows XP Pro.

Now this server is ONLY running this guest machine... full spec on ram 3gb for the guest machine.

Now i dont understand but its sooooo slow, click a button and it takes 2 mins to aknowledge it! I have nothing else but 3CX on it. I cant work out whats the problem.

Processes are running normal (nothing peaking that shouldnt be) CPU fine too

Anyone else had issues running it on 64Bit Server 2008 Enterprise (With Hyper V)

ok i got fed up so install server 2008 standard with IIS as per the guide on the site.. runs a dream when installed!

BUT

79 updates needed to be installed so did this and NOW its back to being on its arse! sooooo slow again!?!?!

Is there an MS update that needs to be removed???

ok it seems to be ok now... after a reboot IIS hung but quick reboot after more updates everything seems to be fine.

I have set the virtual processers to 1 as the image below shows and all is good (SO FAR) there is another problem now with DECT phones that we have connected via a Draytek router regarding volume diffrence between internal and external calls but will raise another topic on that one....
