Hi Joe, Wow, lots to cover here! I’ll have a go at some of this and I know others will chime in.. Yes, 250 g is enough space for both operating systems. You can partition your hard disk in any configuration you like. I’d personally allow 2 g of ram for windows. The alt and command keys are s

Hello When people install windows, but they basically do is Nemac to use VMware fusion. However, for the windows install, you can use narrator. This however is not accessible throughout the entire installation. I was able to install a virtual copy although it took some guesswork. But, as possibl

You'll need sighted assistance for the windows xp and bootcamp driver installations. That version of bootcamp did not support unattended installations. Fusion would be better in this regard. It would handle the xp installation as long as you had the product key to enter during the new virtual

Well, if by It you mean windows XP, and a ram upgrade to your old mini, I think you can get away with what you have. If you upgrade to two gig of ram that would make your xp experience a bit better. The reason you can't go higher than xp on that particular system is bootcam support. XP is it.

Hi Eric, yeah it is not a whole lot of ram this box got. Another option of course is to go out and get one with 4 gig, but say i get it installed will it run painlessly? I am not going too get into a whole lot of geeking for nothing. It is mostly cause i simply need a stable scanning solution for t

On that system I'm afraid bootcamp and windows XP are your only good option. I'm sure you could find an old xp disk laying around somewhere. Tohorrent… Excuse me. Must be coming down with something . Best, Erik Burggraaf Follow my series of articles about setting up a small business through

There's really only one choice here, go with fusion. Parallels is not accessible, for some reason, the developers of parallels chose to use nonstandard controls for everything, which makes it completely inaccessible to voiceover. Why anyone would choose to use nonstandard controls when there are

Hi, I would say, go for fusion, not parallells. Parallels is not as accessible to voiceover as fusion. Under fusion, you won't need any sighted assistance to get windows up and running. On Sep 4, 2011, at 7:56 AM, ezzie bueno wrote: > Hello List, > > I am seriously considering installing Window
