Can vmware run on Boot Camp?Please Help as soon as possible

I recently installed vista ultimate through vmware, but is it possible in any way to boot this vista OS I installed through vmware fusion through boot camp?
Please help as soon as someone finds a certain answer.
Thanks

Running Windows (Vista or XP) is somewhat slower in virtualization than in BootCamp. If this is an important issue for you - and particularly if you are going to be running programs that benefit from fast screen updates - then you want BootCamp. If you need BootCamp then install it and afterwards install VMWare Fusion and use the BootCamp installation rather than a virtualized disk.
If you are satisfied with the performance of virtualization there is no benefit from having BootCamp installed in terms of running VMWare. This is a disadvantage though - you have to shut down, you cannot save an instance, at least with version 1. I haven't downloaded version 2 to see if this has changed. It is much faster to resume an instance than to restart Windows and then your applications.

  • How to download a .txt file correctly. Please help as soon as possible!

    Hi everybody,
    I need to implement download that prompts the user to save a txt file.
    If I use "attachment" in response.setHeader, my IE 5.50 crashes after downloading 4 to 6 files consecutively.
    I tried to change the response.setHeader to "inline" and the response.setContentType to "application/zip" or "application/UNKNOWN", and although it works in IE 5.50, my IE 5.00 never prompts asking to save the file, it always opend the file into the browser window, and I need a prompt.
    I saw many questions related with this problem in this forum, but none that answered accurately to this problem.
    Please help as soon as possible, I dont have much time to do this.
    Thank you very much.

    Thank you gypsy617 for your reply, but it still does not work!
    I made all the changes to
    1)res.setContentType("application/x-download");
    2)res.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + filename);
    3)OutputStream out = res.getOutputStream();
    4)returnFile(filename, out);
    5) and i sent the file content as bytes
    But the real problem is regarding the "attachment" option !!!
    In my application, in the same page, there are a lot of links that users can download, each one a link that calls a action. It works well for the first downloaded file, for the second, ..., and then, when we try to download the file number 4 or 5, IE says that there is a problem and it must close (and it asks us to send a report - something like "Exception Information Code:0xc0000005 Flags:0x00000000 Record:0x0000000000000000 Address:0x0000000077a7710a").
    I know that the problem is the "attachment" because if I choose "inline", IE never crashes. But i really need a Save As dialog, the txt files cannot be openned into the browser window, so i cant use inline.
    Any idea?
    Thank you.

  • My itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
    I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!

  • Can't install Win 7 from USB with Boot Camp - please help

    Hi,
    I'm going crazy trying to install Win 7 from a USB using Boot Camp.
    I've got a 13" MacBook (Aluminum) with 6GB RAM (trying to get to 8GB, but that's a different issue), 500GB HDD, running 10.7.4.
    In the Boot Camp Assistant I want to partition 60GB for the Win 7 drive, but when I click install I get the error: "The installer disc could not be found.  Insert your Windows installer disc and wait a few seconds for it to be recognized."  However, the USB drive that I used Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool in Win XP to create is plugged in.  I also have the .iso file on my Mac desktop.
    Googling hasn't produced any solution that I can work - most seem to be using Boot Camp assistant 3.0, and I've got 4.0.3 running.
    I'd appreciate help, particularly step-by-step instructions that I could follow.
    Thanks in advance.

    Lion has been out and most threads here deal with 10.7. and BCA 4.0.x
    There are problems with burning ISO to DVD etc at anything other than slowest burn speed (2x)
    New 2012 models don't have an internal DVD but if you do, then yours does not support a USB-DVD.
    So you are running XP now and have Windows XP partition? knowing that the update will need 40GB and that Lion does not support XP.
    Look at the other posts I made this morning for some of the FAQ Boot Camp support links.

  • Problems with Boot Camp - PLEASE HELP!

    I'm having problems with Boot Camp. Here's what's happening. I ran Boot Camp Assistant, partitioning a 32GB BOOTCAMP drive. I insert my copy of XP and start the installation. My MBP restarts and boots into the Windows Setup. I let it run through the initial actions. I press ENTER to proceed, F8 to accept the license agreement, then when I get to the part where I should be able to select the Partition 3 BOOTCAMP drive (as it says in the Apple Boot Camp Manual) there is only a Partition 1 Unknown drive. It is the only drive to choose from and its a C: drive. I can't figure out why after I run boot camp the partitioned drive doesn't appear as an option in the windows installation. Please help!!!
    Message was edited by: CarlConti08

    Boot into Leo, start Disk Utility and you should see two partitions, your Leo partition and a Fat32 partition of 32GB at the end of the drive.
    If not, boot camp didn't create it for some reason. If it is there then check it with DU and make sure its OK.
    While your in there give it a name so you can easily identify it in your windows installer.
    If there is no partition, create one using Disk Utility at the END if the drive. make sure you create it as a msdos (Fat32) partition and give it a name. The name cannot be more than 11 characters must be comprised of numbers and/or letters (no special characters).
    Verify it before exiting DU.
    Put in windows install disk, reboot - hold option key after the chime until you see the boot screen - select windows CD to begin install.
    Don't forget to install Leo windows drivers after installing windows.

  • I/O errors with some discs in XP with Boot Camp    Please help.

    I wasn't sure which forum to post this problem in. I've also asked this question in "Using your Intel-based iMac". It fits in a few categories, so I apologize if I've gotten it wrong.
    I tried to install a game (Last Half of Darkness, 2005) yesterday, and with about 1/3 of installation complete, I got this message: An error occurred while trying to copy a file: I/O error 23. I had my choice of abort, retry or ignore. After the 1st error message I chose retry. After a bit more of the installation I got another error message: I/O 1117. I then tried to ignore, that didn't work, so I aborted. I tried to install a second time, and even tried a second copy of the same game, then tried to install the 2007 sequel to Last Half, same error messages. After each attempt at installation, I could not get the drive to eject the disc. I eventually did by restarting in OSX. My iMac is 13 months old. In November I had a similar problem with another game, this one from about 2004. In that case, the game installed, but froze a few minutes into playing. Because I couldn't play, and couldn't eject, without a great deal of time and "spinning" noise, I took the computer to the Apple Store to have them look at it. I figured that if it was 2 months from being out of warranty, I should get it fixed right then. Of course all the messing with it they did showed no drive problems. All other CD or DVDs, either commercial or homemade, music, video or games have installed and run just fine.
    An internet search found this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/891894 I did everything except the clean boot install, and contacting the manufacturer. After changing the transfer mode per these instructions, I could get all of 2/3 of the way through installation before the error messages popped up.
    All drivers are up-to-date according to Windows automatic update and Apple update.
    This is my 4th Mac, so I have little experience with PC/Windows. Can anyone give me a suggestion as to what I can do to install and play these games? Any help greatly appreciated.

    I have had the same problem as above and spent quite a few nights pulling hair out over it. Adding/removing quotes in the environment var and in the ant batch file didn't seem to work though.
    I added and echo line to spit out the antRun command and found the LOCALCLASSPATH var was stuffed.
    Rather than piss around any further I just wrote a batch file to generate an equivilant variable called JWSDP_ClassPath (for want of a better name).
    The batch file code was simply (line by line to make it easier to read):
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH="C:\Program Files\Sun\s1studio_jdk\j2sdk1.4.1_02\lib\tools.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\server\lib\catalina-ant.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\jaxp-api.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\xsltc.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\xercesImpl.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\xalan.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\sax.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\jaxp\lib\endorsed\dom.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\apache-ant\lib\optional.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\java\jwsdp-1.3\apache-ant\lib\ant.jar";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\Program Files\Sun\s1studio_jdk\j2sdk1.4.1_02\lib";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\Java\jwsdp-1.3\common\lib";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\Java\jwsdp-1.3\apache-ant\lib";
    set JWSDP_CLASSPATH=%JWSDP_CLASSPATH%"C:\Java\jwsdp-1.3\server\lib";
    I then call this before the antRun command and use JWSDP_CLASSPATH rather than LOCALCLASSPATH in the ant.bat, eg:
    call set_JWSDP_CLASSPATH
    :runAnt
    java -cp %JWSDP_CLASSPATH% "-Dant.home=%ANT_HOME%" "-Djwsdp.home=%ANT_HOME%\.." %ANT_OPTS% org.apache.tools.ant.Main %ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS%
    This will obviously need to be customised to the install paths on the PC it is run on....
    Anyway hope this helps someone if the above more simle solutions do not.

    Hi,
    You have the desktop version of Reader/Acrobat DC but posted the question in the wrong forum.  This forum (All Communities > Reader/Acrobat DC for mobile) is for the mobile version.
    On your Windows computer, please try opening the PDF document in other non-Adobe PDF viewers to see if the picture turns gray.  You can even drag and drop your PDF document to Google Chrome (web browser) to open it.
    If most of the PDF viewers that you tried show the gray box, you can conclude that the PDF document (generated by Microsoft Word 2013) itself is faulty.  It means that Microsoft Word 2013 has bug(s) in converting Word to PDF.
    I'd recommend visiting the Microsoft Word 2013 Support site to get answers.

  • Is my iPod ruined? Please help as soon as possible!

    Help! Earlier today I loaded a few songs from my iPod and then did not do anything with it for a couple of hours. I went to listen to it and my iPod would not start. I plugged it into my computer but my computer will not say it is plugged it. My iPod screen will not turn on. I have tried to reset my iPod and the Apple Logo will not appear. I have tried to Restore but it says "Please Plug in iPod". The Hold Button is off, also. What is wrong with my iPod? I have combed through the Help boards but they just say to do the 5 "F's". What should I do? Is it ruined? It's not even seven months old! Please help!!

    I upgraded to an Ipod after my shuffle had to be returned and NOW I am a little frustrated with this latest hiccup. So, after diconnecting my ipod from a PC, after charging it, there was all of a sudden no "Menu"- the ipod could play music but I couldn't see anything on the screen. Yes, I tried to reset (hold off and on, etc) then reinstall software and then restore to original settings. Thought this would solve the problem but NOW I cannot transfer the songs from itunes to my ipod. Every time I do I get an error message that says: "The Ipod cannot update. The disc could not be read from or written to." SO I have no music and I cannot see anything on the screen. Nada.
    Help, I love my Ipod!

    It sounds that the Microsoft Installer does not like the optical drive inside of your Mac.
    Do you have access to an external DVD drive?
    If yes, try the Windows 7 install with an external DVD drive.
    If no, try to install Windows 7 from a USB drive.
