MSoK Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 bluecomb, I am obviously missing something here, so bare with me. You have a 10.6 VMware Workstation directory with importantly a vmdk, nvram and vmx file. So if you fire this up under Workstation you have a running OS X 10.6.x? If you are using either Donk's darwin.iso or Albert's Unlocker then you can install VMware Tools from a mounted darwin.iso and enable Shared Folders and copy content to your windows partition, simple as that! Well it can be depending on your starting position. We await your further input and clarification of your specific configuration, MSoK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshay Bazad Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hey dude MSoK right use shared folders.. OR, As far as i think that it's a HFS+ volume so windows won't read it... My suggestion: Install "mac drive'...and tell me the results... Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
