Fusion 4.0: Migrate Existing PC

$

0

I have followed the instructions to do this.  Firewalls are off.  The  machines are on the same network.    I have replaced routers and cables,  but all paths lead to the same result:   An error occurred:  "Windows  is having trouble talking to  your Mac.   Try turning off system  preferences->sharing->File sharing.   If you have a firewall on,  disable it."   Once again, to be clear, the firewalls on both machines  are off.  My questions:

1.  I am now confused as to how the software was written to work  because it seems to me I have been instructed to both turn file-sharing  off and turn file-sharing on.   Does the product need filesharing or  not? 

2.  What's more, since the status message I was getting was  'preparing to migrate your pc", and I had already been authenticated to  the pc, why am I now hearing about a connectivity issue? 

3. Has anyone reading this successfully Migrated an existing Windows PC to a virtual machine that actually runs under Fusion 4.0?

 

Thanks.
