I'll drop it back to 1gb and see if that helps. To equalize NVDA and Voiceover, Windows needs to be at about 90% volume. It's not a big deal, though I will need to remember to lower my speakers if I ever boot into that Bootcamp partition natively. On Nov 29, 2013, at 4:05 PM, Phil Halton wrote:

I have the windows volume set so that VO and Jaws sound at approximately the same level. Then I can boost or cut the volumes with the fn 11 & fn 12 keys if needed. Also, as to ram, I have windows 7 using the fusion recommended 1GB and 1 core on a 8GB MBA and I have no lag problems at all, exce

Hi Alex. Personally, instead of turning up the volume in Windows is a better approach than turning the Mac's volume up. Also, I think the reason why you're having lag problems is because in my opinion having VMWare use 3 gigs is a bit overkill. I'm not sure how much ram my Windows 7 is using bu

I have Bootcamp set up, yes. I have never had any problems, except the usual Windows oddities, when running it, it is only Fusion that is slow. I do have a normal (non-solid-state) hard drive, but that should not matter. I am running a VM sdet up from Bootcamp, so maybe that is causing problems,

Just curious, don`t have fusion yet, but have Boot Camp. Do you have an ssd or hdd spinning drive? The ssd and ram seems to be the most important for minium latency. I experience a little latency in boot camp with a fusion drive because it use the hdd spinning drive only for Boot Camp. Lacie rug

capslock is not passed to VMWare Fusion as a key press. it is handled more as a hardware function by the mac than as a key press. it can be remapped either in mac or windows using various key remap programs. I use SharpKeys from within windows to swap the functions of the grave accent and the

thank you, that keyboard setting does seem to help. I have noticed my VM running at quite a lag, half a second to a second, which really messes up gameplay. It doesn't always happen, but it is enough that audio games are nearly unusable. I gave Windows one core and 3gb of ram, so it should be qu

Hi all, I finally got VMWare Fusion running! I guess I complained enough, because they called me back within an hour, had me set up a remote access program, and did everything for me. I'm still not overly impressed with their support, but at least they fixed this. Now, though, I have some ques
