That seems quite odd, as I have a iMac and a 13 inch Macbook Pro, and VM Fusion
is fine on the Macbook. I also have the iPal Solo (stand alone version of the
iPal). I opted for this as I did not realise at the time they were working on
Mac software.

ahead to the beginning of measure 14 and press Command T aga

Windows under VM Ware Fusion. The issue is when running Windows by itself

That should take care of it.
