[QUOTE="edokid, post: 1361098, member: 259418"] Thanks! Emulating IE doesn't work, I use Microsoft Dynamics CRM as well as some other web sites that require certain features of IE as it still won't work without it. I noticed that when VMware is minimized like right now it shows 0.3 for CPU usage and 76mb of memory. Fans only seem to go when it's doing something like if I'm working on a large file etc but so far having it minimized seems to not really use any resources at all. It takes maybe 20-30 secs to boot up from sleep which is okay but my issue is customers call me and I need to look things up right away. Sometimes restoring from sleep as well the network won't reconnect unless you reboot the virtual machine. [/QUOTE]
