Bootcamp/Fusion question.

[boobooq88]

Yes I am sure there has been a bunch of questions on Fusion and BC but mine is a lil more specific and an easy Yes/No question...

If I install Windows XP on a bootcamp partition and boot it up in Fusion will I still be able to make snapshots? I want to know because I do not plan on buying or downloading any spyware/anti-virus stuff and because I'd like to have XP installed on BC for best gaming performance.

Thanks

I have Vista on a bootcamp partition and I have used vmware to run it as well. While I have yet to try the "snap shot" feature, I did notice that I can't "pause" the VM like I could if I was booting from an image file.
