Hi Everyone

I am Running VMWare n my Mac Note to run Windows XP..
I was wondering how much space should this use up?...
-Under my Virtual Machine folder it says it is taking up 75.08GB.... My Mac Harddrive is 120GB with Virtual Macine taking up 75GB of that.

-Is this the correct amount of space it needs to take up or is that 75GB way to much...

-Could someone give a bit of guidance on how or if i can lower that 75GB...

Thanks in advance

When you installed Fusion and did the setup for XP, how large did you designate the XP hard drive space to be? Fusion will use up to the amount of space you designated. Go back into tools and make the VM hard drive smaller.

Regards.
