Is it possible to go from VMWare to Boot Camp? My VMWare does not meet many of the requirements nessassary to run the games I want to run.

Aside from reinstalling Windows and your apps, I don't think there is a way. I could be wrong, but a quick Google search didn't find anything.

Not sure what you mean by "going" from Fusion to BC, but as long as you have the hard drive space and a Windows install disk, you can run BC.

He means taking his Fusion VM and converting to Boot Camp.
The only way I can imagine doing it is as follows. However, I have no idea if this is technically possible.
Create your Boot Camp partition
Create a new basic VM
Add your main VM as a secondary drive to the new VM.
Add the Boot Camp partition as a secondary drive to the new VM.
From within the new VM, clone your main VM to the Boot Camp partition using Ghost, etc.
I'd still do a fresh install for Boot Camp if it was me. I don't trust Windows enough to be moving it around like that.
