I updated from Chimera 1.9.1 to 1.9.2 the other day and when I went to load my Microsoft Windows 7 virtual machine today using Parallels Desktop 7 I noticed a strange problem. Windows 7 loaded super fast and the status bars and spinning blue circles were moving a lot faster than normal. The cursor to show where you are going to type was also flashing at a very rapid pace. I then went to YouTube and all the videos play like I am holding down the fast forward button.
Speaking of YouTube...
I recorded a YouTube video you can view below of the problem so you can see what is happening.

It seems like the timing of the virtual machine might be off now that Chimera 1.9.2 is properly detecting the CPU speed. My system is running a Intel Core i5-2500K overclocked to 4.5GHz using turbo as you can see in the video. PLEASE NOTE: It only shows 4.3GHz, since About This Mac will only show that speed maximum based on info in another thread on the forums.
I re-installed Chimera 1.9.1 and everything is working again as expected in the Windows 7 virtual machine using Parallels Desktop 7.
