Sorry, this confused me a bit. So, which screen reader in Windows are you using? Are you saying that you remapped the capslock key to the control key in VMWare's keyboard mappings? If so, you then are mapping what to what in SharpKeys? Are you telling SharpKeys to then map the CapsLock key on the keyboard to the Insert Key? Sorry for this.

Multiple aproaches are suggested. keyremap4mac is meant to support this. I've had it working but found it flakey. That's just my experience though, yours may vary and there may have been bug fixes. Personally I remap the capslock to control in the mac keyboard prefs and then use sharpkeys inside windows to remap it to capslock. This works perfectly with the only down side being you no longer have a left control key in windows. I don't value my left control very highly when in windows so this solution works for me.
