I gave up on installing and took my machine in to Best Buy. They don't know if they can install
Windows 7 as a virtual machine under vm or not. They said they don't do much work on Macs. I think it's mostly inexperience on my part. I don't know what I'm looking for. Before taking the machine in I got as far as under the virtual machines it says windows is running. Also my sound card, hard disk and other devices show connected. I couldn't find any area to type in. I'll let you all know what I find out.

But yeah starting narrator isn't a bad thing when finishing off windows install. But to start it. In the vm fusion / windows 7 setup. Press the Windows key + the letter U. and narrator will start automatically. Or at least it should.

I am beginning to have my doubts. I have a Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard, Version 3 of Fusion and a full Windows 7 package. How can I tell when I get into windows? From what I understand I have to start narrator to finish the Windows installation. I have opened the virtual window and also have started it in the library. I usually get the message about inserting a bootable disk after a few minutes of pressing the Cmd key and typing narrator, but I wouldn't think my Windows install disks would be bootable. Is there a tutorial somewhere? Could somebody talk me through this thing maybe this weekend on skype?
