I am running Parallels 4.0 on my iMac. I recently cloned over my work PC as a virtual machine. The VM is XPsp3. The VM starts fine. But shortly after login the wmiprvse.exe process pegs the CPU out at 100%. No other applications can start and the desktop response becomes extremely slow.
I can go in and manually kill the .exe via Task Mgr. A new instance starts shortly that behaves properly.
What could be causing this? Bad hardware driver? Failed initialization of a port? I have other XP VM that behave fine.
Please specify what .exe is using 100% CPU, it would help to know. – Zoran – 2009-09-23T17:36:33.767
