This may be the wrong place, but I just installed vmware and I am trying to install windows 7 on my 17 inch macbook pro but I need the drivers for windows 7. I am looking on the internet but I don't know what I should be looking for. There seem to be alot of different ones. Thanks.

You don't need to install drivers if you're installing Windows in VMWare. What you need to do is install VMWare Tools, which is available through one of the menu options on top.

I am at a step in installation process that says "Select the driver to be installed." I cannot continue the installation without selecting something. It allows me to browse through my files to select a driver. But I don't really know what It is looking for.
