I mounted the Tools ISO manually, which is included with the Unlocker (I used 207, which I downloaded from here).
I'm actually posting via the VM therefore, it definitely works. I have to use the vmWare method, because of the motherboard + CPU having issues with a straightforward native install. I followed the same steps you did (different host, though - Intel G3258, therefore I left the core settings at their defaults), and left the memory settings at their defaults as well (2048MB, though I have 8192MB total, with a max of 4096MB available). I'll post the bluetooth issue in another thread as I can now only consider the speed issue DONE! Even with 2 cores and my CMOS re-stocked (so this host is back at 3.5 - 3.9 GHz) I'm now getting 3751 single / 6545 multi-core scores in GeekBench which out performs my MacBook Pro. So OS X really needs the OS X tools from Fusion then. I might even try upping the cores available to the VM. Basic functionality under Windows (host) is there but no gestures in OSX at all.ĭoes anyone have any suggestions on what might be holding the VM back? Is this a Skylake host issue or does VMWare abstract so far from that? Anything, please?īluetooth, is what I want even possible in the VM? I cannot seem to get the bluetooth driver to be added to the VM so I can use my Apple Magic Keyboard or Trackpad properly. Looking at the host OS I can see the memory allocation slowly creeping up but no where near 16Gb and the CPU utilisation even when running GeekBench is not a lot more than idle.Ģ. I installed Geekbench (32bit) for a quick sanity check and am getting scores of 994 single, 1701 multi - which are a fraction of what my three year old MacBook manages. Granted with only 128Mb of VRAM I'm not expecting super smooth desktops or to run games but simple things like opening Safari and using it should be ok. BUT once booted and the VMWare Tools shipping with 12Pro were installed it was obvious things are not quite right.ġ.
The VM installed fine with things like Unlocker, SMC=0 and such. OSX VM: 2 cores, 16Gb RAM and the VM having raw disk to one of those 240Gb SSD's exclusively (this way being damn close to the same spec as my MacBook) I've followed the advice I can find on the forum and created a VM in Workstation 12 Pro (luckily part of the University's standard tools). Was going to dual boot this new box but disk encryption pains mean that a VM for the El Capitan build would be far more usable day to day. By default my work machine is MacBook Pro (13 Retina for those wanting to know) but I also use Windows for a little dev work and the odd game. Just gotten around to building a new rig at home so I can finish working on my PhD.
