I'm using fusion 7 and installed windows 10 on my 5k retina iMac. I can't seem to get a resolution that works. I have thick black borders on both sides. I gave up and restored my snapshot of previous windows 7 that ran perfectly.

Certainly I would think that fusion should be able to run the resolution of windows 10, but i read somewhere that even windows 8 users were having issues.

You're not alone. Users of other virtual software are having the same problem. The Windows Secrets newsletter today has an article about installing Windows 10 and the many hitches that users are running into. VirtualBox users are also waiting for an update to VB to allow Windows 10 to run. According to the newsletter, the preview of Windows 10 was OK, but the final release apparently was changed. Also, the recommendation from the gurus is to not install Windows 10 until MS gets things sorted out.

Yes I agree. Good thing I restored from a snapshot. I'll just have to wait and see how vmware and MS sort this out. Hopefully soon
