Hi all,

Quite a few discussion on VMware, but can't find an answer to this. Hopefully should be an easy one though......

Is it possible to create an entirely new windows 7 environment on an iMac (OSX Lion) once VMware Fusion is installed for the first time? I don't have any existing windows PC data to import, but need to run new PC software on my iMac.

(All of the demo videos I have watched imply that you need to import existing windows data)

Appreciate the help

Yes, so long as you have a windows install disc you can create a completely clean install from scratch in Fusion.

External hard disk acquisition addict - but admitting the problem is the first step to a robust backup
