MS-DOS Lagging ASUS TUF Laptop host.

[eg1]

This problem affects me for every Windows version I try to use. It impacts the following Windows versions: Windows 3.1, NT 4.0, XP, Windows 7, and Windows 10. In this case, I will use Windows XP SP3 as an example.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new VM
2. Choose expert mode
3. Name and OS: Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3
4. Choose 4096 MB of RAM
5. Choose 1 CPU core
6. Hard disk size 40 GB unallocated, Virtual disk format file format VMDK
7. All other VM settings at default
8. Lag problem occurs

I have tried the following things in the VM settings to attempt a fix for the problem:

1. Tried disabling PAE/NX
2. Tried Disabling 3D acceleration
3. Tried disabling Intel AMD VT
4. Disabled nested paging, which was a partial fix but slowed VM performance
5. Tried making a making fresh Windows install on a separate partition on the host
