I believe this is a known issue for Windows XP VM's. Do you have hardware virtualization? Many older CPU's do not have support for virtualization and this is known to cause Windows XP x32 VM's to run the processing power all the way up. Vista and XP x64 have support for 'lazy IRQL' which allows them to bypass this need.
