I've looked into using a VMWare virtual machine for FMing purposes. However, the performance on the client machine is ridiculous--definitely not usable.
I can only assume this is due to the incomplete state of Direct3D support in VMWare Workstation, but figured I would ask for a solution anyway.
Are there any performances fixes around that should be added to the .vmx, or am I pretty much screwed?
My hardware is as follows:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-core @ 2.6 GHz
3 GB Corsair XMS2 PC6400 (800 MHz) RAM
nVidia Geforce 8600 GT 256MB
Windows Vista 32-bit
