Hi all, I finally got VMWare Fusion running! I guess I complained enough, because they called me back within an hour, had me set up a remote access program, and did everything for me. <grin> I'm still not overly impressed with their support, but at least they fixed this.
Now, though, I have some questions. This is on a Macbook Air with 4gb of ram (total, not for the vm only). I will set up Windows on my Mini soon, but want to iron everything out on the Macbook first since my Mini is my primary machine. 1. According to Fusion's preferences, ctrl-cmd should toggle keyboard/mouse control between Windows and Mac, but that does not always seem to be the case. Voiceover usually grabs keystrokes, almost randomly at times, and the caps lock modifier does not work at all. In addition, keyboard commander keystrokes are grabbed, so windows-b executes my battery script instead of jumping to the Task Bar. This, of course, means I cannot reliably control Windows, and cannot access the NVDA menus. 2. The default behavior for closing Fusion is to suspend open VMs. Is that okay, or is it recommended that I shut them down instead? 3. Windows seems quiet relative to OS10. Is there a way to turn it up? It may well be Windows' volume, I haven't managed to check yet (see #1). Thank you in advance, and I am sure I will have more questions as time goes on. As I said, I really want to nail down any possible problems before trying this out on my main machine. However, I am demoing Windows to a client tomorrow, using the Macbook, so it would be nice to have better control over Windows before then. (Yeah, I put this one off, but in my defense I never expected so much trouble with VMWare).
