Have you installed any version of Windows under Fusion 3? Wonder if I could install Windows 7 under Fusion 2.0?
I'll go pick up my MacBook Monday.

Simply launch a new virtual machine window, select easy install, point to the disk image or CDR and you're good to go. It'll automate it, and it works really well. I've done it with both 32 and 64-bit versions and it's been flawless. Of course, Narrator seems to die on me after a couple of keystrokes, but I managed to do it without Narrator when I had to get JAWS back online.

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?
