Hi
Hmm seems that an accessible install of snow leopard under VMWare isn't a
viable way for me to try out snow leopard and voice over. I'll give
virtualbox a try and hope that I get better results.
I would only try a duel-boot install of snow leopard using something like
IHazard (which includes voice over) as a last resort; I haven't found out
either way whether Snow Leopard would install on an Acer Aspire 4750G. I'm
not sure how well snow leopard would react to the fact that I'm using a core
I7 quad-core sandybridge processor, which includes an integrated intel HD
Graphics 3000 chip. I wouldn't expect things like gestures to work even if I
successfully get mac installed.

Subject: Re: accessible install of snow leopard in VMWare Player
This is against apples eula, even *if* you have purchased snow leopard.
To get the dvd to boot, you'll first have to boot the vm using boot132, wait
for some text to appear on the screen, eject the disk, insert snowy,
complete the install potentially without voice over and then get audio plus
some other things working post install. Its not something you'll be able to
do on your own.
It would probably be easier (But still not accessible) if you were to set up
a duelboot depending on what computer you have at the moment.

Hello All
I've been thinking of trying out a mac lately, so I got the retail
version of the snow leopard dvd so that I can test snow leopard under
a vm in windows. I wanted to see if snow leopard was worth the
investment of getting a macbook.
There are instructions on the net on how to install snow leopard into
a vm in VMWare Player and getting it to boot, but when I put the snow
leopard dvd into my laptop's dvd drive and try to launch voice-over
during the snow leopard install, I don't hear any sound. Either
voice-over doesn't start (which shouldn't be happening since I have a
snow leopard retail dvd) or there is problem with sound during boottime in
the vm.
Has anyone ever encountered such a problem before?
Regards
Dickson
