[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1111971, member: 46727"] [I]Moved to appropriate forum.[/I] I don't think it's a matter of FAT-32 versus NTFS as the reason you can't move the files. Windows 7 can read and write to both NTFS and FAT-32 so that shouldn't matter. OS X (assuming you're using Leopard or Snow Leopard) can read and write to FAT-32 but not NTFS without some sort of driver. I believe your problem is occurring because of the convoluted setup that you chose. Why do you need to have Win 7 running in a VM while XP is using a native Boot Camp partition? Unless there is some reason for having both, why not run Windows 7 from Boot Camp or not run XP at all? Or, setup two VMs in Fusion: One for Win 7, the other for XP? [/QUOTE]
