Hi,

Searched everywhere and short of just leaving my Mac power settings to "never" sleep, is there any way to get the Mac to wake up when the guest (Windows 7) is trying to be accessed?

Running latest VMWare Fusion and OS X. I have a TV Tuner/Media streamer running in the Win7 guest that I can access from other PC's via a browser. All is great until the Mac goes to sleep and then obviously the guest becomes unavailable.

Short of just wasting electricity and leaving the Mac "always-on", are there any alternatives?

Any one have ideas?

Thanks!
mm
