No sound, no aero and no @

Post by Tini »

I have the following system:
Host: Mac OSx 10.6 Snow Lepoard
Guest: Win pro 7 64 bit
VM: 3.2.6

I have no sound, I can not use the aero and 3d functions on win and I cant use the special characters like @, ©, etc as well as the Command+C etc.

What do I have to do. I am a non-computer-experte!

Thanx

aero is not supported yet.
3D is not supported in 64 bit yet. Only OpenGL and is still experimental.
special characters should work though.

Sound can be obtained using Windows Update and check for drivers. Being 64 bit Guest, it might not have a valid driver there. If so, try the RealTek driver from their site (www.realtek.com.tw).
