    I have a game called TGC 2019 that I'm trying to run with Parallels on an M1 Mac. For a couple weeks, it used to run fine. Now, whenever I launch it crashes. The only noticeable change was I updated to Big Sur 11.4.
    As you'll see, the memory and especially CPU are quite high.
    I also lowered the resolution in the game, which didn't seem to help.

    Anything I can do to fix this?

    I should also note I've tried closing down most other programs like web browsers, etc. but the game still crashes.

    Did you happen to get this figured out? I can't even get the game started. Just get the close program or wait for it to respond option

    Unfortunately, no. I ended up getting a gaming PC. Parallels support was non-existent. Requested a refund.

    Getting a gaming PC was definitely worth it. With a max spec'd M1 Macbook Pro using Parallels, there were too many issues for it to be worth it.

    Future Macs may be handle it, but as is now... my recommendation is to get a gaming PC for running TGC 2019.
