Hi, It's really easy to install. Simply launch a new virtual machine window, select easy install, point to the disk image or CDR and you're good to go. It'll automate it, and it works really well. I've done it with both 32 and 64-bit versions and it's been flawless. Of course, Narrator seems to die on me after a couple of keystrokes, but I managed to do it without Narrator when I had to get JAWS back online.
