Hello All,
OK I am kinda of stumped here.
The back story... I uses VM's at home and at work. My work machine works perfectly and I am generally no stranger to setting these up.
I was dual booting Unbuntu at home but I missed the convience of the VMware player in switching back and forth with out rebooting so I decide to create new VMs at home.
So Windows 8 host and I started with Unbuntu 12.10 as the guest.
I kept having issues once I got the iso installed. I troubleshot and back tracked but basically could not figure this out.
Once the system starts in the VM it works fine. I get about 5 miins of actually usable time out of the system then it starts to slow down and the freezes.
I have to reset the VM to get it to respond at all.
Chain hard reseting the VM led to other issues as well.
I had deleted and recreated the system twice and the same issues occurred and yes I downloaded and installed te VM tools.
Getting more and more ticked off at Ubuntu 12.10 I created a new VM for Unbuntu 12.04LTS the stable release that was working just fine as "dual boot" OS on this same hardware.
The real fun one is that Ubuntu 12.04 now acts exactly the same as 12.10 and I have no usable Ubuntu VMs now.
I am stumped and I am guessing I am doing something wrong.
I use VMs all day and have a handful of them set up at work I had working Ubuntu 12.04 set up as dual booting on my home hardware
I have to have something going on with my home WMware player.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Clayton
