VMware Fusion

SHORT VERSION: How can I have a one-click button in OS X to 'restart into bootcamp windows XP' ? LONG VERSION: I have bootcamp running windows XP on my mac pro. Apple have made a simple button in Windows to 'restart in Mac OS X'. This is great and really fast to do. But for some reason, they forgot to do this in in OS X.

If you have VMware fusion it includes a vmdk mounter, just right click and hit open with... ...

Sorry :( I have to run a Mac program on the drive so I can do what I want, so that is why I can't use Virtualbox (Unless it can mount disk images in the host system).

Did you actually try my suggestion? vBox can apparently run vmdk images which should let you edit files within them. Do you have VMware?

Hi there! I was wondering if there was a way to hide the menu bar when the cursor reaches the top of the screen so that it won't pop out? Thanks!

What OS are you running? The Mac version will not run on OS X, but it might run in the Classic environment if you're running 10.4.x or older (not 10.5) and have access to Mac OS 9. VMWare will not run on your G5; it only runs on Intel-based Macs. Running Windows games on PowerPC-based Macs like your G5 is painful at best. VirtualPC might work, but even for very old games...
