When using Fusion it should be possible. Chose to save the Windows.exe file or what the name is on the external drive during the Fusion installation first maybe and then also the windows.exe file of course. Remember i could do that a while back. At least, the windows.exe started from the external drive. Don’t have at the moment, but will install fusion etc. at the end of this year.
If you try the guide linked, let me know if it works. Read the comments from users below the guide on the site.

I’m sure that’s not enough to install windows. If there is a way to run it on an external drive using fusion or virtual machine, I would be interested in knowing if it could be done. I have installed lots of music software to record with on here, so don’t have lots of room left. > On Jun 5, 2015, at 4:37 PM, Rob <[email protected]> wrote: > > Why not use the Win7 PE Disk? > It has NVDA, and talks you through the install. > it even contains setup files for all the Windows 7 installs. > you will need a USB sound card to hear NVDA while installing Windows 7. > > On 6/5/2015 5:30 PM, Eileen wrote: >> Hello, >> >> The partition is completed in the bootcamp assistant while you have speech >> from voiceover: I used a variety of apps from my iPhone6 including: KNFB >> Reader, BeMyEyes, and Facetime.
