OK. that's good to know. he'll need to launch bootcamp utility and create the
newest version of the bootcamp drivers. there is however concerns raised by a
number of apple users that the bootcamp drivers don't recognise a system so
there's the odd hitch.
have you or has he installed the latest VMWare tools package into windows?
the other thing to do before running VMWare windows is this…
go to the settings related to the VMWare machine you're using.
tgo to the DVD / optical drive tab. it should see your USB superdrive as
available, turn it on as a device and mount it. now use this as the primary CD
drive and not the virtual drive it gives you.
