[davidkato]

Hi
I have a macbook core 2 duo 2.0 and installed vmware Fusion. I also installed win xp pro on it, but the VGA is not recognized as intel GMA 950 and in the device manager is under the (?). I tried using the drivers in the intel homepage but it does not work, also tried the "Macintosh drivers" cd burnt with Bootcamp. Video is pretty choppy, i got 2gigs of ram...
Am i the only one with this problem?

As far as I know, Fusion uses its own drivers like Parallels does. Neither Parallels nor VMWare currently use the onboard graphics card drivers (GMA950).

The good news is.... the drivers are on their way, we just don't know when VMware or Parallels will release them.

I can't wait to finally ditch bootcamp and play DirectX games under a virtual machine!
