I am trying to install a Virtual MAchine (Windows 7).
Using the install new Virtual Machine Wizard I follow the following steps:
1) New Virtual Machine
2) Detects Windows 7 install disc
3) Enter User Name, password, License Key etc...
4) Select "More Seamless"
5) Gets request for VMWare Tools download & install....do this
6) After tools install select finish in next window
7) Save as is done
THEN installation of virtual machine finished (& doesn't appear to install windows 7)
The Virtual machine tries to open & the message
" VMware Fusion cannot connect to the virtual machine.
Make sure you have rights to run the program and to access all directories it uses & rights to access all directories for temporary files."
What am I doing wrong?
Please help.

RobynShaw:
Don't have any worthwhile advice but I'd like to find out
what's going on with your install.
Are you still stuck?
Thanks Mitties,
Yes...I have been trying ALL day to get an install of Windows 7 with no luck
Any suggestions?
hi Roby,
Try a complete reinstall of Fusion, refer http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=101783...
During the creation of the virtual machine select the option "More Isolated".
Let me know if this helps...
