I purchased VMWare and put both it and Windows XP on my Macbook Pro this morning. Then I tried putting the game Perfect World International on. It downloaded and installed just fine but when it came time to actually play it, the whole thing basically crashed.
First, the window kept minimizing and maximizing itself really oddly. Then, when I finally got in-game, the whole thing was incredibly laggy. It was so bad that I just shut the game and Windows down.
My boyfriend had the same problem concerning lag with this game. I think he was able to run MapleStory as well as other games just fine though so I'm not sure what's up.

And the only thing I touched was my harddrive size so all my other info should be pretty standard. I believe my Windows partition was 40GB and so I have about 255.56GB left.
If everything is set up properly, shouldn't Windows compatible games run just fine as long as you have the space?
