Just to check off the obvious, how much memory and CPU does your Mac have?
For me the USB stuff has just worked including my Jaws key and various
thumb drives although I don't use those often anymore.

Hi Chris, My mac has 16gb ram and a quad-core processor. I noticed
during the fusion setup process there were some check boxes. The one
that was checked was easy setup, I'm wondering if one of the other
choices would have been better.

Ok, just wanted to make sure you hadn't allocated all your Mac's
resources to Windows :) Sounds like this was a clean install so you
should be on the latest virtual hardware version. You can check that in
the VMWare Fusion preferences under compatibility. On my Fusion 6 Win7
machine it goes to
Hi Chris, I believe I set the disc space to 80gb. But if i look in the
virtual machines library folder it says like 20gb. Tonight I'll take a
look at fusion preferences.
Thanks, Jeff

That 80 GB number is the max size the VM is allowed to grow. The 20GB number
refers to its current actual size. Kind of like having a virtual 80 GB hard
drive with 20 used and 60 remaining.

Right, VMWare smartly only allocates actual used disk space. That said,
if you suddenly add a GB of content to your virtual windows machine
VMWare is going to have to increase the disk spaced used by the virtual
drive file by 1GB. That allocation process is usually one-way. If you

Hi, Well, yesterday I installed windows 7 under fusion 7. Last time i
used fusion it was version 3. I finally got it done but there are some
problems. Windows 7 seems kinda slow, also when i plug a flash drive
into my mac when windows is running i get an error message and sound

How much memory and how many CPUs did you allocate to your Win7 Fusion
setup? At a minimum I would do 1GB RAM and 2CPU but more will go faster.
I haven't used Fusion 7 but under previous version when you insert a USB
device Fusion would ask if you want it connected to the Mac or Windows side.
Hi Chris, I allocated 8gb memory and 2 cpu cores. If I have voiceover
running when I plug in my flash drive it does ask me if I want to
connect it to windows 7. Then my windows screen reader says there is a
problem. I'm going to play around with it again tonight, maybe there
are other settings
it must be a settings problem somewhere, Three’s no reason why windows7
shouldn’t work fine and fly on your system. I run win7 on Fusion v5 and it is
just fine. Don’t run off and use bootcamp just yet - shake out the bugs and
settings and I bet it’ll come around.
You’ll appreciate the ability
