I have successfully been useing VMWARE for testing for several months. I have created and transfered (copied )images for , WINXP, UBUNTU, Windows Server 2003 and others. I recently created an image for VISTA.
It seems to run fine. I need to copy the image to my USB drive so that I can tinker wth it at work. I have had no issues except now for VISTA. My co worker claims he copied the image over fine. No matter what I do, or which disk I try, I keep getting an error stateing I do not have enough memory? Does anyone have an idea what I try so that I can copy the image to my USB drive.

If your USB disk is using fat32 and your image files are larger than 4GB per file, you won't be able to copy them over. Fat32 only allows max file sizes of 4GB. When you create new images you can say that you want to split the files into chunks of a max size. that would help in sucha situation.
You could convert the filesystem on the USB drive to ntfs and then you wouldn't have any issues copying the images. But if you need to access the disk using older or non m$ OS's it is better to use fat32...
