Hi all

Had this error message pop up on launching Fusion : serial0: The socket address name for the virtual printer daemon is too long (/var/....name of folder etc) ....The device will be disconnected. If I just OK the message, XP boots up fine. However, there could be an underlying problem so....I deleted the file in question from the /var folder and got rid the windows printer in the vm. I still get the message when launching Fusion. Could it be a corrupt vm?


cheers for any help guys, you're great.:)
