Using W:A under VMWare (fusion)

If you are using something other, than Windows for your Operating System (or, heavens forbid, Vista), be it your favorite Linux distro or Mac OSX, that does not mean you are out of luck. You still need a copy of Windows XP, but you won't actually have to install it to a physical partition.

There are a couple of options, depending on your OS:

  • You can use Microsoft Virtual PC under Windows
  • There is VMWare Player and EasyVMX for Linux, or you can use Wine
  • And for OSX, try VMWare Fusion

Couple of things to know:

  • For your screen resolution, your screen dimensions must be the power of 8, or your will have some nasty graphical glitches
  • If you are experiencing problems with your mouse, try disabling the VMWare Tools service
