Hello,
Ok so continuing along this thread. We've now got fusion installed,
jaws installed and now noticing a bit of a problem. This problem is when
using various programs, currently we're using mushclient, it's seemingly
running a bit slow giving about a half a second to one second lag on every
command inputted.
I'm thinking this slow down is due to the fact I couldn't get the
customize settings button to work when installing windows onto fusion so
that I could adjust the amount of memory used from 2gb to something like 4gb
instead. Does anyone know if there is a way to modify this once windows is
installed or is the only way to fix this to completely redo the windows
installation on fusion and try and get that customize button to activate?
I'll explain what I mean by not getting the customize key to work. When
I got beyond the screen where I chose the windows version to install, the
user name, windows product key, etc. it gave me the confirmation screen and
showing me how much gb of hard disc space it would allocate, the amount of
memory it would allocate, etc. It had it set to 60gb of hard disc space by
default and 2gb of memory set by default so I wanted to try and hit on the
customize settings button after I hit my right arrow keys beyond those
displays of the default settings while using the quicknav keystrokes. I
then tried hitting the up and down arrow keys together while using quicknav,
turned off quicknav keys and hit VO spacebar, hit enter, hit space, etc. and
every single time it would seemingly always hit the finish default button
where it would want me to save the virtual machine file and start installing
windows.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated as I feel we're so
close to having my wife up and running with everything on her computer
except for these minor adjustments to make her windows experience much more
enjoyable and doable in some cases. If we can get this sorted out the only
thing we have left to figure out is how to use the jaws cursor, pc cursor,
and left/right click commands on windows inside fusion without a number pad
and for whatever reason the standard laptop keys don't work for this.
Take care,
Shannon Gerdts

Wow, this is interesting. So, after you c/p the installation file into the
folder of choice, onceyou open the vm, or rather, run the vm, you should be
able to run the installation file and install your screen reader?
That sounds much neater then fiddling around with narrater and going onto
the web or fooling around with usb drives..
thanks!

Hi:
Actually, if you have the installation files (like j14.xxx.exe) on the
Mac, you can copy and paste to the vm.
Just select the file in Mac OS, press command-c to copy. Then, go into
the VM, make sure you are in the desktop or another folder (like
Downloads) and press command-v. It will copy the file onto the Desktop or
into the folder you have open. This has worked for me in Fusion 5, so I'm
assuming it should work in 65 as well.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I actually never did try that. However, after a while and still having
it say fusion busy anytime we went to that window we decided to do a
forced quit on the application and reopen it. When we did this it
suddenly brought up the screen where we could start installing windows
allowing us to complete this task.
However, now I have a follow up question which I'm not sure how to do
just yet. Now that I have windows installed in fusion and I have
narrator up and running I'm trying to figure out how exactly I can copy
say my jaws installation from my dropbox on the mac OS to fusion so that
I can install it on windows there. Any idea how I go about doing this so
that I can get windows fully up and running with jaws and therefore allow
my wife to fully take advantage of having windows on her mac?

Have you tried to turn off Voice Over and turn it on again?

Hello everyone,
So I'm currently in the process of trying to install fusion on my wife's
laptop. However, after we told it to continue after putting in our
license key it just sits there saying fusion busy. Anyone know why this
would be or how we can find out what's going on so that we can finish
getting it installed and get to installing windows?
Take care,
Shannon Gerdts
