• Cannot use Win8 Boot Camp partition for vm installation

  So I have a new installation of Windows 8 RTM (from TechNet!) new in Boot Camp. However, Fusion 4.1.3 both the Tech Preview will be forever stuck on 'Partition of preparation to present itself as a virtual machine

  Fusion 5 supports Windows 8 Boot Camp.

  The problem, I think you saw, a failure to "VMware Fusion is preparing to present itself as a virtual machine" can be caused by the State of the Windows registry. While I do not have a fix for this right now (us have a bug filed and work on it), I have a workaround.

  The problem occurs after the Boot Camp virtual machine has been put in place, but before it is turned on for the first time as a virtual machine. Fusion strives to insert registry keys and allow drivers to the boot device, and in some situations, it is unable to do. To work around the problem, you can add these keys and activations of pilot (!) manually, under Boot Camp itself. They do not interfere with the help of Boot Camp natively.

  If the problem occurs, you should

  (1) find the folder/Applications/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Resources/naos-1.0.vmwarevm/reconfig.iso and open it in OS X, which will mount the ISO.

  (2) copy the 'bootcamp.reg' on the ISO file and copy it to a folder on your Mac, or on a USB key. We will have this file from Windows.

  (3) restart your Mac under Bootcamp native.

  (4) from Windows, find the file bootcamp.reg where you saved it and double click to add these settings in the registry.

  (5) restart your Mac under OS X, start the merge and recreate the machine virtual Boot Camp.

  (6) it is likely that it will fail again at the stage of the "preparation of your virtual machine", but it is more critical because the necessary settings have been added to the register already. What to do, is prevent the Fusion to remove the virtual machine when you acknowledge the failure. We will do this by renaming the virtual machine.

  (7) when the Committee alert error is displayed, use Terminal or Finder to rename the virtual computer. You will find the Boot Camp virtual machine in your home folder in ~/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines/Boot Camp. Note that the ~/Library folder is hidden by default in OS X Lion and Mountain Lion, so the simplest to get this folder of the Terminal, no viewfinder. If you want to do the renaming via the Finder, open a Terminal window and enter the command "open ~/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines / Boot Camp" and Finder opens the folder normally hidden for you. Rename all of the Boot Camp virtual machine, which will prevent the Fusion to remove it as a failure, then acknowledge the alert Panel. You can rename the VM Boot Camp to 'Boot Camp', or simply drag it to the library of VM merger under the name that you gave.

• remove all the HARD drive recovery partition incl. disk partitions

  IM in the process of upgrading to vista 32-bit Ultimate edition - a Lenovo T61 laptop OS original vista home, comes with HARD 160 GB but only show 110 GB disk.
  There is the hidden for drive recovery partition. now, I've wanted this disk recovery partition removed for more space for important files of video editing.

  How can I remove this parition hidden containing the recovery disk?

  I bought the support for laptop recovery CD - I have no need of the hidden partition.

  in the process, I deleted the existing partition (not the hiiden recovery partition) and installed vista ultimate 32 and it lights without problem. I then installed
  the INF chipset utilitty downloaded from the Lenovo Web site, and then installed some drivers downloaded - and all in perfect condition smooth running.

  now, I decided to remove that hidden partition containing the disk recovery - whatever happens after that, I have the recovery CD.

  How to remove this hidden partition? TIA

  "" "This applies only to Windows Vista.

  * Make sure that you have backed up your OEM code before deleting the Rugged hidden

  The hidden restore Partition Lenovo is a protected partition, then you will not be able to remove it through disk management as you would with any other normal partition. You can use Diskpart. You can still use these steps to remove the hidden restore partition if you have already done a clean install, but you will need a 3rd party software to combine with the main partition. It is better if you remove the first hidden restore Partition, then cross with a clean install using one of the many guides available on this forum.

  Step 1.
  Burn recovery media. Type "Recovery media" (without the quotes) in the search in the Start Menu. Open the application and follow the instructions.

  Step 2.
  Open the application by typing Diskpart either 'Diskpart' (without the quotes) in the search, or type "Diskpart.exe" in run by pressing Windows key + R.

  Step 3.
  Now with open Diskpart, you must enter the following command lines:

  I. type "list disk" without the quotes and press ENTER.

  II. Type in "select disk 0" and press ENTER.

  III. then type in "list partition" and press ENTER.

  IV. then type in 'select partition x' x = the recovery partition you want to delete (I think it's 1, I do not remember) replace x with the number of recovery partition and press to enter.

  V. finally type in "delete partition override" and press ENTER.

  That should do the trick. Good luck!

• Cannot open disk «...» Boot Camp partition.vmdk","could not lock file ".

  I upgraded to VMWare 2.0.1 of the trial version, but now when I try to run it with my Boot Camp Partition, I get:

  "Could not open the disk" / Users/deep / / Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines/Boot Camp partition.vmwarevm/Boot Camp partition.vmdk Camp/%2Fdev%2Fdisk0/Boot' or one of the snapshot files depends on. "."

  Reason: cannot lock the file. »

  I would not be surprised if something was corrupt, because I migrated the entire Mac to a Mac whose hard drive was not.  I know that the Boot Camp partition works because when I start from it, all right. My guess is that the virtual Boot Camp makes machine refers to the broken old Partion Boot Camp on my old Mac.  How do I start again?  Just nuke the directory "/ Users/deep/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines / Boot Camp/%2Fdev%2Fdisk0" set?

• We can establish a common partition for Mac OS and Windows Boot Camp

  I'm new to Mac, so please excuse my ignorance.

  I have a MacBookPro 11 mid-2015 with 512 GB SSD and 16 GB of RAM.

  I have Mac OS X El Capitan and that you have installed 10 Windows using the Boot Camp utility on a 150 GB partition. I wanted a common partition on exFAT which could serve as a repository for my data either of the OS. My intention - 150 GB for Mac OS - 200 GB of data - 150 GB for Windows 10. How can this be achieved?

  Earlier, after the Boot Camp, I reduced the Mac OS to 350 GB partition to 150 GB and released 200 GB. Formatting this turned me expensive because it stopped my Windows to start. Repair it was a waste of time and effort. I draw the hard Windows on a Mac is sensitive to changes in the partition.

  In addition, is using Virtual Box better than Boot Camp? I don't have as much virtualized environments.

  Please advice.

  You can connect an external drive of ExFat formatted. The OSX and Windows can read/write on a disk formatted ExFat.

  A virtual machine has its advantages, as does a Boot Camp facility. A virtual machine allows the simultaneous OS, any necessary initialization to change operating systems. Data can be shared between operating systems more easily. Computer such as memory resources are shared in a VM for applications environment to run slower.

  Installation of Boot Camp allows Windows to run in native mode by using all of the system resources, so apps will go faster. But to change operating systems, a reboot is required. It is more difficult to share data.

• Can I do a repair disk for my 10 boot camp windows installation?

  I installed boot camp using the boot camp assistant and not from my own installation disc.  It is provided in the boot camp assistant.  Sometimes I can't start windows and getting a bad_pool_header error.  I am asked to insert an ERD.  How can I make or get a repair disc?  When I open windows and try to make one, I am informed that I can not with this version of windows 10.

  There is no repair under OS X disk to repair Windows. You must use your Windows installation for this disc. Or find a Windows program for such a purpose.

• Try to reduce a basic volume of Windows 7 on disk 0 using the new Wizard of Simple Volume, I get a warning about the conversion to a dynamic disk.

  Just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Home Edition and decided to shrink the C: drive and create a D: drive.  Everything seems to go correctly, and I get to the 'End of Volume Wizard' screen without problem.  All the choices seem to be OK but when I click OK I get a warning that says "the operation you selected will convert selected basic disks and dynamic disks...". "I want to do this?  If I do, what are the consequences?  If I don't want to convert a dynamic disk how create a D: drive which remains a basic disk?

  Hi Ken Dunn,

  Welcome to Windows 7 Community Forums

  Basic disks and dynamic disks are of two types of hard disk configurations in Windows. Most personal computers are configured as basic disks, which are the simplest to manage. Advanced users and it professionals can make use of dynamic disks, which use multiple hard drives in a computer to manage data, usually to improve performance or reliability.

  For more information, see the link below:

  I hopeYou have followed all the steps to shrink a partition correctly but, you encounter a problem, carry out the task. You can go ahead and try the following steps to reduce a volume.

  1. open the Control Panel (all items view)and click the Administrative Tools icon. then close the Control Panel window.

  2 in administrative tools, click computer management , and then close the Administrative Tools window.

  3 in the left pane under storage, click disk management.

  4 in the center pane, right-click the partition that you want to shrink and click on Decrease of Volume.

  5 type in how many MB (1 GB = 1024 MB) of space to show available reduction you want to reduce the partition or volume by to use for the new unallocated space, and then click the minimize button.

  6 the partition selected (step 4) has now shrunk to create a new empty unallocated space. You can use this new space unallocated to create a new partition with.

  7 close the computer management window.

  To create a new partition:

  1. you must first to reduce a partition or a volume create an unallocated partition to use to create the new partition or volume with.

  2. open the Control Panel (all items view)and click the Administrative Tools icon. then close the Control Panel window.

  3 in administrative tools, click computer management , and then close the Administrative Tools window.

  6 click on the Next button

  7 type in how many MB (1 GB = 1024 MB) you want to use from the unallocated partition to create the new partition, and then click the Next button. (See screenshot below)

  NOTE: If you want to use all of the unallocated partition to create the new partition, and then enter all the maximum specified for the partition unallocated disk space. If you use any of the maximum disk space, you can use the left in the unallocted partition space to create another partition with.

  Select an available drive letter you want to assign to the new partition in the computer, and then click the Next button.

  9 enter a volume label name that you want for the new partition, check the perform a quick format , and click on the Next button

  Click on the Finish button

  11 the new partition or volume has been created with the space in partition assigned unallocted (step 7).

  12 close the computer management window

• Can I install the same Windows 7 as a Boot Camp partition AND a VM regular partion?

  I've been running Windows 7 regular valuation as a VM partion.  Now that it is officially released, I bought a copy and I upgraded my Vista to Windows 7 partition and then I start under Boot Camp or Fusion 3 lets start the boot camp partition.  Starting time on a partition Boot Camp is a bit longer than on a normal partition of VM, so I find myself most of the time with the assessment of partition of the VM, but in June, it will go away.  Could I take the installation disk that I used for the Boot Camp and install it also as a regular virtual machine, or which will cause insurmountable problems for activation?  I hate to have to buy another copy of Windows 7 just to get a faster speed when I don't want to use the complete as machine when I boot Boot Camp.  Sometimes, I have to give Windows the power of the machine, so don't want to only install as a virtual machine.

  Ask yourself if someone illegally active copy of Windows?  This would be a pretty Brave soul to admit illegal activities.  :-\

  You only have one license for Windows if you are only allowed to have a single installation to be activated at any time.  Activate a second time to remove any other installation that uses the same license (aka product key), by the Windows EULA.  Another thing is the violation of the EULA.

  The 'Microsoft police' will come knocking at your door?  Who knows.  Microsoft has billions of dollars and could very well decide to use some of those dollars to make an example of a person, like how the RIAA did to people he considers pirates.    It of ultimately your decision whether to violate the EULA or not.

• Problems with Windows 7RC in the Boot Camp Partition

  At the time current Windows 7 in any version is not supported by Apple on the Boot Camp partition, nor is it supported in any way under Fusion.

  Although it is not supported, it will work however it depends what Guest select you when the virtual machine based on the creation of a regular file.  I don't got no problem using Windows Server 2008, when the virtual machine based on the creation of a regular file.

  On your Boot Camp partition was a clean build or you have an existing Boot Camp partition previously Virtual Machine.  If you had a Boot Camp existing partition previously Virtual Machine then try the following.

  ====================

  Note: These senses are different which have already been posted so read and follow through... Note: These steps assume that you have a single Apple to default installation of Windows on a single Boot Camp partition and Boot Camp of VMware Fusion single default partition Machine virtual (without a snapshot *) and if you have changed the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Machine package virtual first. * Also note that Fusion 2.0.0 may accidentally have a snapshot with the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine and it should not have, then you should check to ensure that the condition does not exist as well. (With merger closed if the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine package is over 1 MB in size, then you might have a snapshot in place and do not continue with these instructions.)

  ===

  1. If the merger is open, close it.

  2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will delete the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine of the metadata and the Virtual Machine to help.

  Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition install windows in that it does not remove it.  Also be sure you copy all the command line below, as well as, "RM" at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the s in the Machines. "

  RM - dfr "/Users/$ the specified item was not found./Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines/Helper/naos-1.0.vmwarevm/vmware.log ' ~/Desktop/Helper_vmware.log

  ====================

  I tried implementing VMWare using Vista and Windows Server 2008, 1280 MB RAM and 3D on and outside.  Any ideas?

  VMware is a company so I doubt that you have implemented the company however, your statement is a bit ambiguous because it is not clear if your always talk your partition Boot Camp Machine virtual matter in Fusion, you tried to select each of them as an OS on the entrance of Boot Camp partition on the Virtual Machine library and it didn't help the Boot Camp Virtual Machine partition number or to be issues with creating virtual machines with these operating systems.
