– Creating a Virtual Machine. To begin, we need to install VirtualBox Windows. Download MacOS Mojave ISO. You have to get macOS Mojave ISO in the link. Step 2: Create a new virtual machine. Virtualbox lets you run Mac OSX within Windows by creating a virtual machine, which is a program that simulates a normal computer. To create a virtual machine, open up Virtualbox and click 'New' on the upper left. Give your new virtual machine a name, and choose 'Mac OS X' for the OS Type.
I installed a MacOS on a Windows 10 host by following the article 'install-macos-10-14-mojave-virtualbox-windows' at techsviewer. com.
I noticed a huge lag when starting the machine for the first time. The mouse was very slow and I got multiple keystrokes, hitting one key (e.g. 'a') would result in multiple characters (e.g. 'aaaa'). I found a post indicating that VirtualBox should be started using 'RunAs Administrator'. That seemed to help but after a while the lag returned.
I then moved the MacOS guest to another host. There I could give it more resources: 4GB > 8GB RAM, 2 CPU > 4 CPU. The MacOS seemed to run more stable, without lag. I then tried to run a higher screen resolution and used the following command to upgrade to 1280x1024vboxmanage setextradata 'VMNAME' 'VBoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution' '1280x1024'

To my surprise the lag returned! I had to revert back to the default 1024x768 for the lag to go away. Does anyone know what is causing the lag? And how to solve it, not really a fan of 1024
