How do I put Virtual Disk contents on a separate partition?

Post by katacarbix »

My computer is too slow to be running LabVIEW/SolidWorks on a VM, let alone both Win7 and OSX at the same time. How can I do this? Would I have to do everything from scratch? Thanks all :?

What do you mean by "too slow"? CPU speed? memory?
Some technical details and numbers would help to give you some help here.

I'm not sure, performance I guess, but that's not important. I just want to be able to expand the contents (and maybe put them in an iso on an external drive) and restore them to a new partition. I want to do this because reinstalling everything would take forever.
