Hi guys,

Just to add to the council of despair:

I've been having similar problems with a Windows XP virtual machine
and Window Eyes 7.5 after upgrading to Fusion 4. Whether I upgrade the
VM or not (I think this has more to do with the Mac side rather than
within Windows itself, as VMWare Tools upgrades itself regardless of
this choice), I get to the stage of Window Eyes wanting to reboot
having discovered there's been a new graphics driver installed, then
Windows restarts and I get the blue screen of death during the reboot,
it then restarts and sticks on the XP startup splash screen.

I've now reverted to a backup of the virtual machine a few times,
trying:
- cancel Tools upgrade, remove Window Eyes, reboot, let the Tools
upgrade, reboot and install WE again
- repeat the above, but use my original WE 7.1 installation disk
rather than the upgraded 7.5 one.
In both cases the same thing happens.

I'm going to try building a new XP VM tomorrow that has never seen
Window Eyes, then install it and see how it goes, maybe will try a
Win7 VM also, but I can't say I'm particularly hopeful. Failing this
will just have to accept I've blown the £40 I spent on the Fusion 4
upgrade and put version 3 back on. Real shame as I've been a happy
Fusion+WE user for a couple of years and this is literally the first
problem I've had.

Anyone had any more positive experience?

Mark
