Hi all,
We are using VMware Player version 6.0.1 running on windows server 2008 R2
We converted one of the system's symantec backup (windows 2003 OS) to vm using VMware vCenter Standalone Converter V 5.5 (selected VMwae player 6.0.x during conversion)
Host OS : Windows server 2008 R2
Guset OS: Windows Server 2003 R2
we are facing the following problems.
1. when we played Virtual machine, it was very slow and we cant install VMtools, so we entered into safe mode(safe mode system works fastly)
2. In Safemode, when we tried to install we got some DLL error (see the attached picture), log files also attached for your reference.
3. By installing VMtools on guset, will it be fast to work?
Following this we tried and didn't worked for us. Anyone have the solution for this problem.
