Thanks for this. I looked at the documentation and it looks like I will need to do a new install of Windows. From what I read, VMware will simply give you two ways to boot Windows. And since I cannot boot into Bootcamp anyway, this will not work.

However, I think I recall that you must keep the Bootcamp partition when you 
use that option. As I say, I cannot remember if that was truly the case or 
whether I just elected to keep it but check it out just in case you either 
don't have the space or don't want to have to do that and it is an issue.

I also remember having some trouble with this kind of installation with regard 
to updating OS X since it relied on Bootcamp and there was a driver issue or 
something. It was all during my early days of Mac use so I was struggling to 
get a handle on things so I'm not as clear on it as I should be.

   I opted for the non Pro version. Looking at the choices, I see one for 
migrating from Bootcamp. My fingers are crossed. Will do some prep work before 
I attempt that.

I recommend Pro because it does give you more control and more OS choices.  
There again, if all you want is to get a Windows VM up, it hardly matters which 
edition you choose.  The completist in me is always happy for the extra 
flexibility though—things like whether the network adaptor can be promiscuous 
or not, or whether the virtualised CPU will have Intel VTX in the guest.  It’s 
all good.
