vmware workstation pro 15.5 no floppy selection

On my secondary device with Hyper-V off, performance has always been buttery smooth. Even opening the File Explorer causes massive latency. I realize that the documentation notes that a performance drop of about 15-20% is to be expected, but this is definitely beyond that: it seems more like 85-90%, to the point that the VM is virtually (pun not intended) unusable with the exception of performing some text editing, and even then it is very laggy.

I was very excited when 15.5 was released so that I could finally use my VMware VM alongside Hyper-V, however performance has been abysmal so far.

I never get a layout option with JUST the two bottom monitors unless the upper right monitor is unplugged.I have been running a Windows XP VM for years on a secondary device since VMware has historically been incompatible with Hyper-V, and I needed it for virtualization-based security and, more recently, Windows Sandbox. This is what the monitor layout selection looks like if all 4 monitors are plugged in. Mucking with the monitor setup in windows also does not help. My monitor's native resolution is 2560x1080, which is no longer an option within my VM's display properties. After updating my product to 15.5, the VM is no longer filling the screen because the display settings changed to a different resolution. I have tried to change the order in which the HDMI cables are plugged into the video card and it makes no difference.īoth host and guest are Windows 10 Home. My VM is running Windows 10 圆4 and I like to use it in full screen mode. If I plug in the right top monitor I can only use both bottom monitor with either one of the top monitors.

If I unplug the right top monitor I use both bottom monitors by themselves. After that VMWare will NOT allow me to set the VM to use both bottom monitor unless the top RIGHT monitor is unplugged. Last month, the top, LEFT 27' monitor's HDMI cable got unplugged. I ran the virtual machine with just the two bottom monitors (32') 2 27' at the top and 2 32' at the bottom. For about a year I ran VMWare Workstation Pro 15.5 virtual machine with 4 monitors.
