Did you read the spoiler?
And while you are at it read my sig, that's how you are making me feel.

[Noxid]

No, I'm being serious. That is one and only cause of your problem, and that is the only way to fix it. Please stop bringing this up, I'm pretty sure you've been told this at least 4 times.

Hey Cookie, welcome to the forums!
As the only regular member who uses a mac every day, I'd like to say I feel your pain. I also used a virtual windows system to run windows 7, and I had this same problem, I couldn't find a way to fix it. The only way to fix this problem is to "get a PC," as everyone else has said, but it's a lot cheaper than you'd expect. In fact, it's free!
Every single Mac released with an Intel processor (put into place a few years ago) has the capacity to dual boot mac OS and windows OS, just as a windows user can dual boot Windows and Linux.
Complete instructions here: Mac 101: Using Windows on your Mac via Bootcamp

Unlike a windows emulator, bootcamp runs windows at full speed since it doesn't have to be running Mac OS at the same time (which is fairly processor heavy).

Also, if you're still using virtual windows after this, Be sure to check your settings for windows permissions, you're using only one core of your dual to quad core processor as it stands, making games very laggy.

I'll give it a try when I get the chance!

Please do that as soon as possible.
Get your Windows disk from wherever it is
And put it into your Mac.

No exceptions.
