Virtual machine running painfully slow
12.04 running slow on my machineUbuntu running slow on my good machine!virtual Box on Mac running slowWindow chrome disappears and reappears causing jumpy windowsBrowsing is painfully slowUbuntu 15.04 VM too laggyUbuntu virtual machine very slow boot timeVirtual machine works slowUbuntu becomes extremely slow after running Machine Learning training programUbuntu running very slowly on VirtualBox VM
I am running Ubuntu 14.04, and I've installed windows 8 on virtualbox. The problem is that it is too slow - even minimizing a windows takes 2-3 seconds.
The reason I think this is a problem is because I have a fairly strong machine here: my cpu is i5-3470, and I have 8 Gigabytes of DDR3 running on intel SSD with SATA3. Checking the hardware monitor while running the VM shows that I only use 4 Gigabytes and CPU usage is around 5% idle.
Here's what I think: I have an on board graphics card that can't run all of windows' eye candy fast enough. Also, in virtualbox preferences I can't check 2d/3d acceleration, as I get a message about invalid configurations.
Am I right? And if not, any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm guessing you mean the built-in HD 2500 graphics on your CPU? Can you be more specific about the error about the 2D/3D acceleration?

Your CPU integrated card should be enough to run Windows 8 eyecandy.
The fact that you can't check 2d/3d acceleration makes me wonder if you have too little memory allocated to the virtual video card.
Try to increase it in the Display section at the virtual machine preferences menu. Make it at least 256 Mb if possible.
