It did. Thanks. I also found this page and would highly recommend it for nontechies like me. It gets to the point and explains it. HOwever, even for the more technically-oriented, it's a good overview. http://www.macinstruct.com/node/248 So it does appear that I'll need some sighted assistance. First, to get that product key for Windows and then to see when it's stopped configuring itself so that I can install my screenreader. If I were to install NVDA, I could always go to http://www.systemaccesstogo.com and have that on while I went to http://www.nvda-project.org and downloaded from there. But if I were to install Hal or even Kurzweil or cicero, would simply sharing the drive between Fusion and Leopard make the virtual machine recognise the cd rom?
