Hi AlvinSu,

There is a known issue about Intel display driver in Sierra 10.12.4 host which will cause black screen while launching virtual machine with Fusion. Apple has fixed this issue in latest Sierra 10.12.5 beta 2 (16F54b), in the meanwhile, either you upgrade to a beta build of Sierra, or wait for the official release of 10.12.5.

Hi sputnik669,

Would you please inform about the build number of your High Sierra? Also, please provide the detail about your graphic card.
