Hi

I don't have my main computer with Windows 10 on internet but it would be handy to be able to go online. Can VMware Player mount a Linux Lite dist to go online with while it's still blocked for Windows 10?

Thanks

So.. not the usual post..

I got VMplayer to run Multiple Game Clients, and it runs fine for awhile..

It's an older game, and useage isn't heavy..

Currently each VM is running at 4cores / 8gb.

Problem I'm having is eventually the VM's will throw up errors related to the GPU and shut down,

I'm guessing it's a GPU Onboard MEM problem.. and Software Emulated is way to slow to be of any use.

I have tried a Quadro 4000, and a GTX470 as I have only those 2 on hand.. and my server will only take 1 card.

So I'm really just asking what card, bottom dollar card that is, that I would need to do this setup and not run into MEM related issues.

PC Specs.

Windows 10 Pro

2x X5670's /  40gbRam / Multiple Raid0's

3xXP64Pro VM's (have keys for more, but after this current problem is solved)

Befor I install VMware Workstation Pro 12 on ubuntu 16.04 with kernel 4.4.0-38 generic, vmware does not work.

I have this message error: BEFOR YOU CAN RUN VMWARE, SEVERAL MODULES MUST BE COMPILED AND LOADED INTO THE RUNNING KERNEL

I I try to fixe the problem with script provide by your staf, but it's for another version of vmware.

Can anyone help me to modify the script for Pro 12 version?

Thank you

I am running Windows 10-x64 (guest) on Workstation 12 Player (12.1.0 build-3272444). The host is linux. However, every time I click on the Virtual Machine Settings, I get a popup window that say "Windows 10 x64 is not a supported guest operating system for Workstation 9.x virtual machines. Some features of it might not work properly unless its virtual hardware is upgraded." I am not sure why Player is assuming it is 9.x when the version is clearly 12.

I am wondering if there is some old configuration file that got left behind when I upgraded to 12.

I'm running a dell 780 desktop with windows 10 64 bit and vmware workstation 12 player. I've installed a fedora 24 64 bit guest machine and I've got a problem with the sound device so...

the default sound device cannot be opened

a device id has been used that is out of range for your system

failed to connect virtual device sound

The sound device in windows 10 shows up as a High Definition Audio Device and it works fine. I've been trawling google but can't find a solution that works for fedora 24. In the fedora 24 guest the sound device shows up as: Analogue Output: ES1371/Creative Labs CT2518/ES1373 (AudioPCI 64V/128 / CreativeCT4810/CT5803/CT5806 [Sound Blaster PCI]

In vmware settings the sound card is set to auto-detect with a dot in 'use default host sound card'.

Can anyone help get the sound working?

Hello,

I have VMware Player 3.1.5, installed to Windows 7 Starter, SP1.

I appreciate that this is an old version of the VMware Player, but would appreciate help.

I can no longer drag and drop files / folders into the Virtual Desktop, from the Host Desktop.

I can still do it the other way round.

Until recently, drag and drop between the VM installed Guest operating system Desktop and the host real Desktop, worked fine.

The Guest operating system installed to the VM is Windows 98SE, for the purpose of running some old, but still useful, applications that do not run in the Host operating system Windows 7.

The antivirus installed to the Host operating system is Avast and I always disable it when using the VM.

When I try to drag and drop from the Host system to the Guest VM, there is no error message, but the "read-only" pointer symbol appears instead of the transfer taking place.

I have tried dragging and dropping both a folder, and also a simple .txt format file.

The following is what I have tried to do to resolve the issue:

Rebooting.

("VMware Player 3.1.5" does not run in Safe Mode.)

Used "MSCONFIG" with minimum 'Startup' items Enabled (including with "VMWare Workstation" enabled).

Carried out a "Repair" of "VMware Player 3.1.5" (which can only be done from its original installer file), but this also did not resolve the problem.

I have no restore points earlier enough to use prior to the appearance of this issue.

I would appreciate some help.

Regards,

My VMware application was corrupted (multiple times) and I had to force remove the application and all entrants of it. I used the KB article to remove all of the bits and pieces.

Now, I cannot connect to any USB devices with my VMs (any of them) and I get no errors that there is an issue.

Looking at my services.msc section, it shows USB Arbitration Service for VMware is "starting" but never actually starts. I found the log for the service and all it says is the below. I can't seem to get the service to start even after installing/reinstalling/removing/deleting the application or executables associated with the service. I could use some help in figuring out why I can't connect USBs or start this service.

Hello all

I am not able to use this idea on Workstation Player 12:

Using a network adapter only with the VMware Workstation guest virtual machine (1020359) | VMware KB

In virtual network editor I defined VMnet2 as bridged and linked it to host NIC.

For the host NIC I made sure only vmware bridge protocol is selected.

So guest with VMnet2 only is unable to obtain ip address from DHCP server, not even ping gateway (network unreachable error).

However when I also select  both: TCP/IP protocol and vmware bridge protocol on the host NIC, guest obtains IP address fine and can ping internet sites:

http://websistent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/vmware-bridge-protocol.jpg

Recently moved all my VMs from Host Win7-64bit to Win8-64bit.

Fresh install of Player v 5.0.2 build-1031769

Computer is Acer Aspire M Intel i5 @ 1.8Ghz

Graphics is Intel HD 4000

When any of the various VMs are started from the Powered Off state, the player window will open and a big black screen will appear where the guest display should be shown. The guest OS does indeed boot, right up to the login screen although with no display visible. If I try to click on the close button in the upper right corner, I get a dialog box that says "The Virtual Machine is Busy". My only option is to end the vmplayer.exe task using task manager. Once I do that, the VM shows state as Powered On in the Library. If I Play it the 2nd time, the VM will resume operating correctly with the proper display at the immediate point where I expected it to be when I ended the vmplayer.exe task earlier.

Presence or absence of Tools in Guest does not affect the problem.

All 3 of my VMs have the exact same behavior. Guest operating Systems are: WinXP-SP3-32bit, Win7-64bit built from the VMware Converter, and Server 2008 from the MS eval ISO.

Any ideas? Once the play/end task/play sequence is performed the VM works correctly. Until it is shutdown or hibernated. A VM restart does not exhibit this symptom. The problem is reproducible with all VMs every time.

Provided vmx for the XP VM and a few logs.

Thanks in advance. I'm so close to having this work it's even more frustrating than if it didn't work at all.

Hi Team,

    I have trying to install macOS Sierra with VMWare. but facing error for there is not enough free space on OS X Base System to install.please help me.

Hello there!! I currently run a variation of Ubuntu as a guest and the host is Win10. 

I chose

Player > Manage > Update VMWare tools

and the CD ROM was mounted and I found the latest VMWare Tools in .tar.gz format

I decompressed it and ran the ./vmware-install.pl under the root account inside my Linux and I kept click on [yes] and I read "installed successfully"

but when I restarted my VMWare and checked the version by giving the command

vmware-toolbox-cmd -v

It still reads 10.0.7

What am I doing wrong? 

Thanks a lot! 

As per title, when I go to make a new virtual machine, Apple Max OS X is not available anymore. This has only started happening since I updated VMWare Workstation Player 12, but I reverted to an older version and the problem is still there. What is going on? All help would be greatly appreciated!

This is the image: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

As you can see, it boots up until this point then reads this error message and restarts and does the same thing. How can I fix this?

For some reason, the guest seems to only be able to use 1/4 of the total GPU. (There's also a 2GB VRAM cap, but that isn't as big of a problem). I'm really not sure what's going on here... the guest reports 100% utilization, while the host only shows 30% and the other 5% is probably the host (ubuntu 16.08). Do I have the virtual machine configured wrong, or do I have to edit a config, or what?

Using: GTX 960, nvidia-smi, rivatuner + MSI afterburner

(Not sure why it says D3D11, it clearly isn't, but whatever)

Hi everybody,

I've a big problem with my virtual machine.

This is created to test hard disks with a bootable media.

It's needed because when I test them with my host system it hangs constantly.

The problem I have is the error message when there is a sector with errors found.

There comes the message "Operation on file '\\.\PhysicalDrive1' failed" where I always press continue.

The message appears 30 times before the sector is marked.

How can I disable this message so that all errors are automatically forwarded to the guest OS?

After the last VMWare Player update, I noticed a change in the icon that is displayed on a shortcut as well as the executable file.  Instead of the four-point yellow star, I now see a generic sheet of paper.

BUT, if I go to the properties page for the shortcut, the proper icon is displayed, and a portion of it is shown on the folder where I have placed the shortcut. The proper icon is also shown on the properties page for the executable.

To further add to the confusion, I tried logging on to a full administrator account, and the proper icon was displayed in all locations.

Very strange............

For Workstation 12, Windows 10 host, Ubuntu 14.04 guest:  I have a Kingston HyperX Cloud II USB headset/mic combo that I like to use for voice communications via google hangouts.  If I attach the device to a linux guest (tried both ubuntu and centOS), set the headphones to the output device AND the headset mic as the input device, I receive audio stuttering in the VM.  Now the interesting thing is that if I disable the headset mic as the input device the audio stuttering goes away and all is well (except that I can't use the mic of course).

When using the headset in the Windows 10 host OS, I have no such problems and the headset works fine with the mic enabled.

Has anyone else run across this issue, or perhaps had any success with USB headsets in a Linux guest?  Any thoughts on what to try that might resolve the issue?

Thanks in advance!

Dave

thanks

I can't find any help to clone a VM from VMWARE workstation 12 player. I have 3 VM and need to clone than all.

Thanks.

It really sucks - VMWare killed unity mode in Player 12. Had I known I would have stuck to Player 7 - it was working fine.

Anyone know if there's any way to get the installer for 7?

Thanks
