I may try upgrading mine to version 4 and see if window eyes works, I can also restore from my external hard drive if it doesn't, the reason I chose not to upgrade the virtual machine was mainly because everything was working and I figured if it ain't broke, don't fix it. On Sep 23, 2011, at 11:

Yes, Mike. I did find out that xp was a bootcamp issue. Still, very odd that folks are having problems with fusion four. It works great for me. My upgrade went without a hitch. Sent from my iPhone On Sep 23, 2011, at 6:17 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote: > Xp is not supported using boot camp, fusion is

Ok, So I just had VMware tell me to uninstall my screen reader and reinstall. It seems that they think that because I am running JFW 11 and 12 on the same machine that it is conflicting with their video driver. I told the guy that I would do it and return the results, but that I was 100% sure t

I'm interested in this as well, especially as I'm also "stuck" back in xp days. I have WE 7.5, but if it's not going to play nice with version 4 of fusion, I'm totally happy to stick with version 3. Heck, it took me long enough to get everything there happy together! lol! Thanks, Caitlyn On

I encountered the same problem with WE 7.2. Not sure exactly what is going on, but sense I only need the windows VM for one specific purpose, I have a backup and will just copy it back over and skip installing the tools. Now that I think of it, I don't really need it in any event, but fun to muc

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 up

Unless something has changed at Freedom Scientific, I'd be surprised if they agree to help you, I heard someone asked for help and when they found out that they were using JFW on a virtual machine on a mac, they said that wasn't supported. On Sep 16, 2011, at 6:52 AM, Keith Watson wrote: > Mike

Mike, So far neither you or Scott have installed the vmware tools on your upgraded vm's and you are working fine. I have convinced Scott to make a copy of his vm and attempt to install the tools. I have a feeling that it will crash but would like a verification. I have posted a ticket with VMWare

I had no problems with updating the VM, but the tools installation seemingly got stuck at installing thinprint drivers, so I killed the install process and have not gone back. I will try again though and see if I can break anything. :) On Sep 15, 2011, at 2:08 PM, Bill Holton wrote: > Not yet,

Mike, Did your vm automatically try to install vmware tools even after saying no to the upgrade vm option? No matter what I have done it always seems to want to install. I have to cancel and can then use the vm, but it's annoying. On Sep 15, 2011, at 8:10 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote: > I have windo
