I recently installed a vlite stripped version of Windows Vista Ultimate on my MacBook Pro using VMWare Fusion 1.0.

I've got two questions: How do I get it to recognize the sound hardware? Windows says there is no audio devices connected even though Fusion is set to share the Mac speakers.
How do I map a network drive on Vista? I've got file sharing turned on in Fusion and in Vista, I just need to know the path to a folder on my Mac to use in Vista's "Map network hard drive". This one should be easy for you guys =) I didn't use the simplified setup offered by Fusion, when I installed XP (now removed) I used this option and the mapping worked immediately.

Thanks

Edit: After finding a Creative PCI audio update in Windows Update the audio works. Still looking for the path to a folder on my virtually networked mac though. //.host/ something. Windows gives me "//.host/Shared Folders/" as a valid network drive, but it's empty. Where would this lead on my mac?
