marine63,

 

Glad my guide worked for you. Here are some other things I wrote that may help you:

 

VMware OS X Speed Up Tips: http://######.com/software/osx86speedup.htm

VMware OS X Networking (Internet) How To: http://######.com/software/vmwareosx86network.htm

 

Now, answers to your questions:

 

1. Yes, you could use VMware Fusion to run a Windows XP virtual machine inside OS X. Drivers for your hard drives are not required.

 

2. Yes, you can use VMware to install OS X directly onto a real partition that can be booted natively. You can use Acronis OS Selector and there are some methods where you can use a XP/Vista bootloader to load OS X

 

3. The easiest way to transfer files to a OS X virtual machine from Windows or USB HD is to copy the files to your hard drive, put them into a new ISO image and create the ISO image, then mount the ISO image as a CD-ROM device in VMware.

 

Hope this helps
