Need some help if you can give it -- Parallels is worthless.
I use parallels for some transcription work, including a footpedal. Everything was working fine this evening until, for no apparent reason, I get really bad keyboard/input lag -- seconds worth; the audio playback for the .mp3 file is broken, delayed, etc.
I have done nothing except do an update this morning, yet everything was working fine until just a few hours ago, and it works fine on my MBpro.
The fan runs up (which may not be abnormal), but everything is just slow, playback audio is delayed, open office -- any word processing app -- is slow input, taking seconds between a keystroke entry and the result, etc. I thought maybe something was wrong with the parallels VM, so I restored a copy from this morning, but nothing.
I thought maybe the new updates I did on the mac side might have something to do with it, but as I said i'm not getting any of these problems in my MB pro. Nothing has changed on the mac side, it runs fine.
Any ideas on why this could have happened?
I HATE WINDOWS.
