I've been using another virtualisation environment for the past year or so, both for development and gaming, but I decided to try VMWare Fusion for the same purpose and I'm running into a blocker.
My VM is a Windows 8 guest on a Mac OS 10.9.1 host, running on a 13" MacBook Pro. The max resolution is 1280x800 and I need to be able to force Fusion not to scale into any higher resolutions because of a well-known bug in Mirror's Edge.
I've already read VMware KB: Adding video resolution modes to Windows guest operating systems, but I'm stuck when it comes to editing the Windows Registry. Apparantly, vmx_svga is not found and I've tried adding it manually without any success.
So, what am I doing wrong here?
