Can one backup a bootcamp partition and get same results?
Original message:
Hello Kliphton,
Thank you for the answer to how you got your virtual machine to
recognize/see your network attached storage.
To answer your next question, “Yes”; backing up your virtual machine
means that you will not have to reinstall or authorize any Windows software.
Kliphton, keep in mind that, regardless of how it may appear from
within Fusion, your entire virtual machine, complete with all of its
settings and installed software, is nothing but a single file. As such,
merely copying the file to another folder or drive on your Mac
constitutes a backup, such as it is.
I cannot remember where the file is stored but it’s pretty easy to
locate using Finder when you are not running Fusion.
Generally speaking, once I get my virtual machine tweaked just right, I
copy the file to a remote destination; then, should something go wrong
on the virtual machine, I simply copy it back to the appropriate
destination and I’m back in business.
It works kind of like a poor man’s version of Windows Steady-State, one
of the best pieces of software I’ve ever used.
Enjoy,
Mark

Well, instead of interacting with the tool bar with the voice over
navigation, I went to the apple menu and arrowed over to virtual
machine menu. Once there I arrowed down until I came to network adapter
sub menu. Once there I made sure network adapter was connected as well
as the network to bridge directly to my network, if you don’t tell it
to bridge directly, and just auto connect, it will just share the
connection with the apple side and not see everything on your network.
By bridging directly it saw my nas storage, as well as my router and
xbox360. It’s pretty easy once you know what you’re doing. I didn’t so
had to ask questions and play around a little bit. Another question I
have. If I back up my VM machine, does that mean I don’t have to
activate any of my software again when I import it? Like office, jaws,
and anything else saved within it? That’s what someone on another list told me.

Hello Kliphton,
You are most welcomed for the help; could you please tell us what the
problem was in getting your Windows Virtual machine to see your network
attached storage?
This will most definitely be useful to others who may encounter the same issue.
By the way, which version of Windows do you have on your VM Ware Fusion
Virtual Machine?
As to your question regarding USB speakers, I’ve never used USB
speakers with my Mac; however, I am certain that there will be someone
on the list who can help.
Eagerly Awaiting Your Reply,
Mark

Hello, thanks to Mark and others for your patients. I finally figured
out what the issue was. Last thing is, I have a set of USB speakers, so
how do I tell my mac I want them to play sound out of them, instead of
treating them like a input device?
