You need this software https://www.vmware.com/au/products/workstation-player/workstation-player-evaluation.html
If you're new to using Virtual Machine (VM) images, please make sure you have turned on virtualisation (VM instruction sets) in the bios of the computer. Intel CPU called virtualisation and AMD CPU it's called SVM. Apple Mac by default normally on and some BIOS default is on, but more often this is turned off. Use a search engine, if you need to find it in your specific BIOS, they are all different, but typically it is located in CPU sections as related to instructions for virtualisation being turned on.
Free is about as cheap as I need it to be. Download VMware Workstation Player | VMware | AU There is no reason to purchase a key and does not have any problems using the player without one.
AER is the latest, and is the same as Lexia 3 full chip and perhaps is best suited to newer vehicles. (it is what I use on my 4007, 2013)
Lexia 3 full chip is minimum specification you ideally want, 12pcs JAPAN NEC Relays+ 7pcs OPTOCOUPLERS (it can run more testing functions than cheaper models)
The older the vehicle, the more likely you will need additional cables offered. I don't know exact cross-over dates or models, just that they are legacy.
I have never used anything below Lexia 3 specification, so don't know much about it.
Hope this is helpful.
If you're referring to the first post than, Yes and yes, edit the VM and put more processors cores (default was 1 or 2, I put 8 or 12 cores at it) to it to make it run faster and a little bit more ram.
If you download the image used in post one, the minimum specifications are Here for VMware Workstation, which is what is typically used for running the image.
Most of what you're asking is explained in the Link from the original posting. I'm unsure why you think VM is more taxing than any other piece of software on your computer. If it can't run a VM not doubt will struggle with this just as efficiently.
It is borderline, technically 2.2ghz Dual Core was needed, with Intel-VT-x turned on in the BIOS, you can try VMware Player 7.0 and see if it will install, successfully.
How is what I said confusing ?
AER is the latest but identical, 12pcs JAPAN NEC Relays+ 7pcs OPTOCOUPLERS but it won't fit all vehicles, ie prior to 2000 ones mainly.
Yeah, I can't say 100% this change over date, there will be always be one or more vehicles to make a lair out of you. If you need to use PP2000 and not DIgabox then you may need all the useless crap that comes with non AER version.
Hope this helps.

On mine, the OBD2 is so low down, that could not happen, not discounting the experience, but the same could happen with anything connected and you hit it with your leg. I broke a cup holder that way once, and I didn't blame the cup holder, the issue was all me.
So seems hard to fix then, don't hit with your leg or get one of these.
Solved.

Core Duo were a mixed bag for VT, while the CPU chipsets generally had support for this (and at 2.2 Ghz is officially when), not all BIOS had the ability to turn it on (desktops generally did). You might want to check if you have the latest BIOS for the laptop installed.
You may also want to check it has been turned on in window features, been ages since I used Windows 7 that wasn't in VM.

USB 2.0 would be the most likely default speed. You could try setting that in BIOS if the port is higher specification or within the VM. Unfortunately, I've not come across this issue to be sure.
