Hello,
Ok so continuing along this thread. We've now got fusion installed, jaws
installed and now noticing a bit of a problem. This problem is when using
various programs, currently we're using mushclient, it's seemingly running a
bit slow giving about a half a second to one second lag on every command
inputted.
I'm thinking this slow down is due to the fact I couldn't get the customize
settings button to work when installing windows onto fusion so that I could
adjust the amount of memory used from 2gb to something like 4gb instead. Does
anyone know if there is a way to modify this once windows is installed or is
the only way to fix this to completely redo the windows installation on fusion
and try and get that customize button to activate?
I'll explain what I mean by not getting the customize key to work. When I
got beyond the screen where I chose the windows version to install, the user
name, windows product key, etc. it gave me the confirmation screen and showing
me how much gb of hard disc space it would allocate, the amount of memory it
would allocate, etc. It had it set to 60gb of hard disc space by default and
2gb of memory set by default so I wanted to try and hit on the customize
settings button after I hit my right arrow keys beyond those displays of the
default settings while using the quicknav keystrokes. I then tried hitting the
up and down arrow keys together while using quicknav, turned off quicknav keys
and hit VO spacebar, hit enter, hit space, etc. and every single time it would
seemingly always hit the finish default button where it would want me to save
the virtual machine file and start installing windows.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated as I feel we're so
close to having my wife up and running with everything on her computer except
for these minor adjustments to make her windows experience much more enjoyable
and doable in some cases. If we can get this sorted out the only thing we have
left to figure out is how to use the jaws cursor, pc cursor, and left/right
click commands on windows inside fusion without a number pad and for whatever
reason the standard laptop keys don't work for this.
Take care,
Shannon Gerdts

Wow, this is interesting. So, after you c/p the installation file into the
folder of choice, onceyou open the vm, or rather, run the vm, you should be
able to run the installation file and install your screen reader?
That sounds much neater then fiddling around with narrater and going onto the
web or fooling around with usb drives..
thanks!

Hi:
Actually, if you have the installation files (like j14.xxx.exe) on the Mac, you
can copy and paste to the vm.
Just select the file in Mac OS, press command-c to copy. Then, go into the VM,
make sure you are in the desktop or another folder (like Downloads) and press
command-v. It will copy the file onto the Desktop or into the folder you have
open. This has worked for me in Fusion 5, so I'm assuming it should work in 65
as well.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I actually never did try that. However, after a while and still having it say
fusion busy anytime we went to that window we decided to do a forced quit on
the application and reopen it. When we did this it suddenly brought up the
screen where we could start installing windows allowing us to complete this
task.
However, now I have a follow up question which I'm not sure how to do just yet.
Now that I have windows installed in fusion and I have narrator up and running
I'm trying to figure out how exactly I can copy say my jaws installation from
my dropbox on the mac OS to fusion so that I can install it on windows there.
Any idea how I go about doing this so that I can get windows fully up and
running with jaws and therefore allow my wife to fully take advantage of having
windows on her mac?
Take care,

Have you tried to turn off Voice Over and turn it on again?

Hello everyone,
So I'm currently in the process of trying to install fusion on my wife's
laptop. However, after we told it to continue after putting in our license key
it just sits there saying fusion busy. Anyone know why this would be or how we
can find out what's going on so that we can finish getting it installed and get
to installing windows?
Take care,
Shannon Gerdts
