I installed windows xp sp2 using VMware Fusion.
i heard that VMware Fusion was the best to play games using windows.
however when i try to play guild wars, the characters are stretched. and then i force Gw to run using direct x 8. the characters are fine, but the terrain and the menu are really messed up.

please help.
how can i fix this and play gw normally without any graphic problems.


Thanks.

Neither Parallels nor VMWare Fusion are good for gaming. To unlock the full use of the Mac's built-in video card and processor you will want to install Windows via the Boot Camp method which Apple has provided with the 10.5 OS. You may even be able to re-use the Windows XP disc you have to accomplish this.
