I'm also a lightweight user on the Windows side. Pretty much just the
occasional JAWS and web browser. For that, when running a 64-bit OS like
Windows 8 I give it 2GB RAM. 1GB for 32-bit Windows. My Mac has 8GB RAM
so I don't want to give Windows any more than I have to. Worst case is
Windows will start swapping to the hard drive and slow down. If you have
an SSD that might not be a big deal but I'm still on a spinning disk
drive. I'd upgrade but I currently have a nice 750GB drive and the SSD
equivalent from Apple would be a 1TB drive, adding a nice chunk of
change to the cost. Someday…

That's odd, I have a Windows VM on my MBA with eight gig and fusion recommended
I only assign one gigabyte to the VM. That's what I have done I just followed
fusions recommendations, and windows works fine as does Mac OS X. Course, I'm
not running any high-powered apps on the windows, just Internet exploder and a
few other mainstream apps.

No, from my own point of view, you really don't want to try running a vm and
host OS on only 4 gb of memory.
I wouldn't try running windows on less than 4 GB infact I have 4 for each of my
windows 8 vm's but only run one at a time so the host has 4 gb also.

4 gigs sounds typical but you can verify that in OS X by selecting About
this Mac from the Apple menu.
If 4 is enough to run both OS X and Windows, I have no idea. I also have no
idea how many windows can be open at one time but there has to be a limit
somewhere.

In Windows, yes. But as I said, if you cannot open more than one,
you might be short on memory.

How much memory does your Mac have? You need to split that
between OS X and Windows. You do this in VMware settings. I added
memory and have 16gigs and split that evenly between OS X and Windows, works ok.
When you run both aat the same time, both are using/sharing
resources.
You can leave VO as is.

Hello all:
I have the El Capitan with Vmware v7.1 and windows 7 64 bit with
jaws 17, i can not open more than 1 window at a time, is this the
vmware concept or we can adjust something?
and, what about Voice over, must we close it before using the
Vmware or what?
Thanks
