Virtual machine hangs when I use Ubuntu

I'm using 10.04 using VMWare Player. The virtual machine is very very slow and is hanging often. I have to force shutdown the system whenever it hangs. Mine is a Dell laptop with 4GB RAM i3 processor and 2.40GHz frequency.

I'm not sure if it is a problem with my processor. I could have comfortably used Ubuntu even if it is a bit slow. But the terminal and everything hangs. Let me know when someone face the same problem with a solution.

The most popular bootleneck in every laptop and in many many desktop is the HDD. Probably your HDD is under stress and simply couldn't keep it up with all your I/O requests.

Your CPU is not an i7 but it should be at least a dual core with an high frequency and most likely your HDD is performing worse than your CPU.

If you have an external HDD try with this one.
