I could use a little help getting my VM to only run at idle priority. I am using VM player 3.0.0 on a Win 7 X64 box with 12 gig of ram and it is running BigAdv - But I can't figure out how to lower it's priority. I'm using the EVGA Linux64_FAH image. I thought to change priority I needed to add the lines
priority.grabbed = "idle"
priority.ungrabbed = "idle"
to the Linux64_FAH.vmxf file (below). When I do this and try to restart folding there is a file access error. Then if I remove the above lines the vm will start up and fold like normal with no error. Any ideas how to fix this? Am I changing the wrong file?
Linux64_FAH.vmxf
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Foundry>
<VM>
<VMId type="string">52 89 b6 a1 26 8f c2 c1-70 ef 09 dc 64 4e 01 59</VMId>
<ClientMetaData>
<clientMetaDataAttributes/>
<HistoryEventList/></ClientMetaData>
<vmxPathName type="string">Linux64_FAH.vmx</vmxPathName></VM></Foundry>
