• problems installing XP using vmware player

  I used vmware for some time, but just re - install my virtual XP environment.

  My host PC is running win7pro_32bit and I use vmware player (v4.0.0 build-471780)

  When I go to start the installation (from CD using CD I used to build PCs in the past, but never in vmware), I see an error

  "CDBOOT: couldn't find NTLDR.

  I'm guessing that my winXP disk might be shot, but I can't believe (seems ok)... is it possible that I missed an obvious step?

  I have attached a log if that helps?

  Welcome to the community,

  If please define the virtual CD-ROM drive in the virtual machine for "Legacy Emulation" settings and try again.

• How to create a computer virtual file VHD using VMWare Player?

  I created a .vhd file using disk2vhd which contains my drive system (a Windows 7 installation). I would like to create a virtual machine using VMware Player of this image, but I have been unable to do. Can someone help me?

  Thank you very much

  Mike

  You were quite right about the execution of my VM from an external drive USB - no problem at all.

  Today experiences confirm that:

  (a) I can run my VMS on Windows 7 and Windows 8 from an external USB

  (b) VMPlayer can create files hard greater than 2 TB in size (on Windows 7 and Windows 8 guests)

  (c) I can't reach my Data.VHDX file on my Windows 8 host

  (d) I can set up as a shared folder inside my VM on Windows 8

  (e) I can copy files from the shared folder to a drive on my virtual machine.

  Certainly, this closes this discussion - thanks a lot for your help.

• How to access Oracle Applications 11i forms using Vmware Player?

  Hello

  Hello

  If you mean how to access the e-Business Suite from the virtual machine, and then you just navigate to the same URL as you would normally. You may need to put the alias of the machine in your hosts file if you reference it via the name of the computer rather than the IP address.

  If you mean you want to load the form in the form designer (for example) then you will need to FTP the form from the server to the client (as you normally would), then open it in your client (XP virtual machine).

  If you want to use the workflow designer (according to your initial condition) then you must ensure that the TNSNAMES.ora file in workflow Home Builder has an entry for your instance on Linux, and then you should be able to connect to the database directly.

  HTH,

• Why my PC slow down to a crawl when VMware Player is the suspension to the .vmem file?

  My PC becomes almost unusable when VMware Player prepares his State record to .vmem file. VMware Player is delegate the task to C:\Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe process. When we look in the Manager tasks, I see that the CPU usage is just 5.10% and the memory usage is around 40%, which is normal for me. When I open resource monitor, I see that ntoskrnl.exe is written extensively to the VMware .vmem file. From writing to the disk stops, my PC immediately snaps back to normal.

  I scanned the disc for errors and the performance issues with HDTune, I tested the RAM with memtest. Everything is normal, no errors, drive performance is approximately 110 MB/s. I have antivirus (Avira free) and I don't know that there is a legitimate ntoskrnl.exe Windows process. With the exception of this problem, my PC worked rock stable for three years.

  Why write on a hard drive that is not my OS drive affects the overall performance of a PC so and what can do to solve the problem? Also I don't understand, why suspending the hard .vmem file so long?

  My virtual machine has 8 Windows as a guest operating system. It has 4 GB of RAM. After I suspend the virtual machine, my host PC is trolling for about 10-15 minutes which seems far too long a little writing 4 GB of memory to the .vmem file status. I also tried VM VirtualBox with the same guest OS and 4 GB of RAM and it suspends a lot sooner and don't drag my PC after that. Also if I move the files in Windows Explorer on the same drive, it has this issue. It seems so VMware Player or ntoskrnl.exe is something too aggressive.

  
  

  Here are the specs of my host computer:

  CPU: Intel i3 2120 
  Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H67A-USB3-B3 
  RAM: 8GB 
  Hard disks: 
  OS and system disk - Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120 GB, connected to internal SATA3 port 
  Data disk (which causes the slowdowns): Seagate ST31000528AS 1000 GB, connected to internal SATA3 port 
  OS: Windows 7 64 bit Professional with SP1, updated regularly
  
  

  With the virtual machine off (non-suspended), try adding the following configuration option to the .vmx file:

  mainMem.writeZeroes = TRUE

• VMWare Player more does support disk VHDX image files?

  I use VMware Player to run a virtual machine on my desk and have successfully created a leave of a virtual hard disk file that contains an image of the drive system.

  I would like to now add a data disc image which is a file VHDX - it's too big for a virtual hard disk image - but VMware Player does not recognize this.

  Does anyone know if VMware Player Plus will accept such an image? Or even VMware Workstation?

  Thank you

  Mike

  Thanks for all this input that - after more experimentation - enabled me to solve my problem. I have two files created by disk2vhd utility Microsoft containing my system disk and my data disc. the first is a VHD file and a VHDX file because the data disk is greater than 2 TB. I wanted to create a virtual machine from these two files - on my Windows 7 host or my host of Windows 8. It is not possible on Windows 7 because the operating system does not support files VHDX editing as readers, but the following works on Windows 8:

  (a) Winimage use to convert the File System.VHD in System.VMDK (time consuming)

  (b) create a VM on the host WIndows 8, install the operating system later by removing the empty VMDK file and add System.VMDK as an IDE drive

  (c) editing the Data.VHDX file as a disk on the host Windows 8 attaching.

  (d) create a new. A VMDK file in the virtual machine that is large enough to hold all Data.VHDX (Yes, VMPlayer can create. More than 2 to - even on Windows 7, in this case the VMDK files)

  (e) sharing the drive created from file Data.VHDX as a shared folder in the virtual machine

  (f) copy its contents to the new. VMDK file

  Undoubtedly Ghost would be a better way to copy the file, but it seems to work for me.

  Thanks for your help - I think that closes this discussion.

• I just started to use a new version of Illustrator and the text I've created has a pink box behind, seems to be on the depth of the normal linespace, it is not visible in outline view, only in the preview. What is this and how do I get rid of him?

  A pink box indicates that the font is not installed. This is a file that you have worked before, or is this a new file?

• Connect two VMs via the connection to the local network using VMWare Player

  So this topic can be posted already, but I'm at the end of the roll, trying to find a solution. I have VMWare player installed 3.1.4 on an enterprise_x64 of Windows 7 system. I configured two virtual machines: OS1 comments: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.5_x64 and OS2 comments: WIndows 7 Ultimate_x64. I need the Linux server to act as a database server in the system environment, that I am creating. The Windows 7 VM will be the client PC. The Linux server is configured to be it's own DHCP server, so ideally the client PC connects to the field of tht and also follow the Linux server IP address.

  I tried all the options of networkign for each virtual computer, but no sem to create this type of connectivity. How to configure the network settings in VMWare Player to make two virtual computers can communicate with each other via a virtual network? (Communication with the host pc is not necessary)

  The short answer is to manually install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, Editor of virtual networkand configure VMnet2 without DHCP and host vNIC and then configure manually each virtual machine network adapter to use Custom VMnet2.

  The longer answer has already been given so many times that you should be able to find detailed directions, however...

  To install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, virtual network editor, run VMware-player-* .exe-e c:\vmptmp go to a command line and then in the c:\vmptmp folder, locate the file c:\vmptmp\network.cab and extract (double-click on the .cab file) vmnetcfg.exe (virtual network editor) file in the working directory of VMware Player usually ' C:\Program Files\VMware/VMware Player ' you can create a shortcut to it and place it with the shortcut of VMware Player if you want to access more easily to her.  This utility is not installed by default is however necessary to turn off the automatic bypass on VMnet0 if the system is multihomed and two or more physical host from the NETWORK adapter is active or you want change VMnet1 and VMnet8 subnet addresses or additional VMnets.

  The you must manually change the configuration of each virtual machine's .vmx file in Notepad, change an existing parameter and add another.

  Change:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "nat"
  

  TO:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "custom"
  

  Add:

  ethernet0.vnet = "VMnet2"
  

  Note: Regardless of connectionType ethernet (n) shows it should be changed to "custom".

  Be sure also to Machine virtual are stop, not suspended and VMware Player is closed when you edit the .vmx config files.

  Here are some pictures to show.

  Here in the VMnet2 virtual network Editor is selected and is how it should be if you what to use your own DHCP server and the host does not have a vNIC.  You can change the IP address as a result of your needs.

  

  Here's the value VM card network NAT settings.

  

  This is what network settings Virtual Machine map will look like after you change the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file to use Custom VMnet2.

  

  BTW if you replace the Machine network card virtual settings through the user interface customized by something else then you will need to manually edit the .vmx config file to retrieve.   With VMware Workstation, you do not need to manually install the virtual network editor and should not manually edit the .vmx config file as the custom list box is still present and shows all VMnets to select from.

• Conversion to a virtual machine using VMware Player?

  We have an environment consisting of ESX:

  • vCenter 4.0.0 (build 162856)

  • Runing host ESX 3.5.0 (build 163429)

  I have very limited exposure to VMware Player and who has been with the first versions.

  We received a request to make an existing virtual machine in Windows 2008 for use with VMware Player.

  1. Is this feasible?

  2. I had user Converter?

  3. I'm confused about the end result and how to deal with operating system licenses and IP information as they proliferate this image in VMplayer?

  Looking for some tips and information to help me get started.

  I usually copy the complete directory of the virtual machine on ESX to a host with vmplayer and it - just run without any conversion. Just doubleclick vmx-file...

  This works even when the virtual machine has snapshots, although I do not recommend.

  If I have problems they can usually be cured by a simple modification vmx and vmdk so I amy forget a step here.

  Anyway - just try and come back with error messages.

• Using VMWare Player on Bootcamp of Win7 to access the Mac OS x partition?

  Greetings,

  I'm new to VMWare, and I Fusion for Mac OSX that accesses my Bootcamp (Win7) partition.

  I recently installed VMWare Workstation 9 for Windows that includes VMWare Player.

  Is there anyway to access my Mac OS x partition from the side Bootcamp as I do when I use Fusion on Mac to access Win7?

  I see the answer go both ways, but I wanted to post on the forum to be sure.

  Thank you!

  VMware does not support the operation of Mac OS X in VMware Player/workstation!  Also, legally virtualisables versions of OS X running in a Virtual Machine cannot be done when done in the Apple brand hardware but when done while running under OS X and for that you have VMware Fusion of VMware Player/Workstation or you violate Apple's SLA for this product.  So any help can you provided for OS X in this use of the scenarios that it would violate the community VMware operating conditions to do.

• VPN works only on Windows XP using VMware Player

  Hi all

  I have a windows 7 64-bit OS on my laptop. Unfortunately, having only 32-bit cisco VPN client. So, I installed VMware player and windows XP virtual machine. I have internet access on the virtual machine. but when I try to VPN, I get the message "connection SecureVPN over locally by the Client. Reason 412: the remote peer is not responding. "I turned my firewall off and tried again, done some windows updates, restart... nothing seems to work and do the same message. Can someone shed some light on this subject and help up the VPN.

  Maybe a MTU of network card setting must be adjusted.  The installation of the Cisco VPN Client manipulates program usually change the MTU when installing, but sometimes this is not...

• When I keyin information of track using Media Player, is this info inserted in the file itself, or only in the index Media Player?

  Original title: metadata key - music

  My question is actually very specific: when I keyin track using Media Player Info, is this info inserted in the file itself, or only in the index of Media Player? If I have to rebuild the indexes in the metadata file, the indexed fields are kept in?

  Only in the index of Media Player.  If you remove this file WMP (without actually deleting the computer/folder) and then read the file again, you would see that your changes have disappeared.

  To actually change the file, you will need a program known as ID3 Tag Editor.

• You try to start a version of the OS called Windows via a .iso file

  I can't start on the file .iso to a Windows Server 2003 Server installation of the company I am trying to accomplish.  I know that the .iso image is good, as I used it elsewhere.  According to the parameters of the virtual machine are concerned, I have the CD/DVD is mapped to a "record Datastore ISO" and search on the file to select it.  I checked the boot sequence in the BIOS, which is set to CD-ROM first, Network boot, peripheral removable and hard.

  It is a Dell PowerEdge R200 host.

  Hmmm, it seems that ISO is located on an NFS share.  Could you pass the ISO to a local data store and try the connection again?  I'm not 100% sure, but the NFS share is not able to connect until, when an operating system is started the virtual machine.  Move the ISO in a local data store that would confirm.
