kvm xp and in place reinstalls

[Todd And Margo Chester]

Hi All,

SL 6.4 x64

Do any of you run XP in KVM?  Have you noticed that you have
to do occasional "in place reinstalls" of XP to correct a severe
case of the slows?

I have two XP VM (and others).  I just got through having to
in place both of them (again).

If you have had the same problem, do yo come up with a
way to prevent it recurring?

Many thanks,
