When I install TinyXP on bootcamp I can access it if I restart in Windows, but when I try to access it through VMware fusion the keyboard and mouse do not work. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

It just sounds like you are missing drivers for your keyboard and mouse or Fusion isn't configured to pass the data to TinyXP.

Go to Virtual Machine -> Install VMWare Tools and reboot Windows. This makes the mouse work properly.

This also solves the issue of not being able to switch from 4:3 resolution to 16:9 (in case you are using a widescreen-monitor).
