speed up xp mode? - thanasis2028 - 04-21-2010

I am using windows 7 ultimate with a core i7 processor. I had a problem on my Win 7 with an application, so I decided to try it out on Windows Virtual PC and XP Mode. The app works fine, however, it is really slow. Out of the 8 threads of my i7, only 1 is used in XP mode, and only 512Mb out of 6GB. Is there anything I can do to make my XP mode use more of my hardware?
