Hello, Ok that is what I figured but wanted to check before we went ahead and did it right htis second, smile. Well at least the process is easy enough to start so will just wait until we have someone who can read the screen when we do this then.

Voiceover can handle installations of mac operating systems or updates just fine, but creating a VM is essentially installing Windows, albeit on a virtual disk instead of a physical one. So, Voiceover cannot see anything Windows does because Windows is its own operating system, and so you will not be able to get speech feedback (thanks, Microsoft). -- Have a great day, Alex mehg...@gmail.com On Feb 11, 2014, at 5:31 PM, Shannon Gerdts <bambam...@gmail.com> wrote: Hello, Wow that’s really nice. Now with both of us being blind would we still need sighted assistance during the install process or would voiceover work to tell us what’s going on during this installation?

You create a new VM, choose to install from existing file or CD, then navigate to the iso when you are prompted to open the location of the Windows install disk or file. Pressing enter launches the process, and Windows installs. That's all there is to it! -- Have a great day, Alex mehg...@gmail.com On Feb 11, 2014, at 4:58 PM, Shannon Gerdts <bambam...@gmail.com> wrote: Hello everyone, Ok so I purchased a new macbook pro 13" for my wife's birthday. We're now wanting to see about installing windows onto her macbook using fusion since that will allow her to run windows and her mac OS side by side so that she can switch between the two and run applications as needed. However, I'm trying to do some searches for doing such a thing since the newest macbook pros no longer come with an optical drive so I'm not sure how to go about this task using an iso. I did manage to get ahold of the windows 7 version I have in an iso form but would love to get some feedback on how I go about using this iso and installing it into fusion. I want to thank all of you for any help on this matter ahead of time as it will be tremendously appreciated from the both of us.
