Mac Running Altium in a VM win7

[TiagoRibeiro]

Hello everyone, I have a mac All in one and I am trying to run the Altium Designer in a VM win7.
I'm using the Vitual Box, but the pcb are not displayed in the program, it may be a problem with directx?
Thanks

This is a well known issue, and is indeed caused by an incomplete DirectX implementation in VirtualBox -- which Altium relies on to render the PCB view in both 2D and 3D. It's been a while since I've tested it myself, but as far as I know there is no fix for it.

Drawing schematics and running SPICE simulations in VirtualBox shouldn't pose any problems though.

Thanks, but I used another program to make the VM, I used VMWare Fusion 7 and everything worked just needed to install VMware Tools to run 2D and 3D PCB.
