• VMWare Player wireless adapter question

  I'm relatively new to VMWare Player and have a network problem.  I am running VMWare player with a Windows 7 host and the VM v4.04.

  I use the VPN virtual machine and try to set up the virtual machine with the IP host wireless.

  
  The virtual computer network is set to Bridged w/Replicate and detects the card physical network, State and IP without problem, however, it does not detect the adapter wireless at all.  It is not in the virtual computer Device Manager, the period of INVESTIGATION, nor the State...

  What would be the right course of action?

  Thank you for your time.

  BTW VMware Player 3.x and later to not install the virtual network Editor by default and you will need to install it manually...

  To install the missing virtual network Editor, the command prompt:

  VMware-player-*.exe -e c:\vmptmp
  

  Then in the c:\vmptmp folder find 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 VMware Player' or ' C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Player.  You can create a shortcut and place it with the shortcut of VMware Player, if you want to access it more easily.  Note: there are some for all the files to be extracted to then access the network.cab file.

• Portege R - 400 3 G modem freezes VMWare Player 3.0 in Windows 7

  Hi all

  I have a problem following needs your help.

  I have a Portege R-400 with 3 G build-in modem. It is installed Windows 7. All is well until I install the VMWare Player 3.0.

  Without modem 3G connection, each application still works fine. (I use WiFi most of the time.)

  When I'm not in measure use WiFi and connect with 3G, without starting VMWare Player, the system freezes within 5 to 20 minutes.

  The symptom is without any response to the keyboard and mouse, but can see HD light flashing.

  Then, I'll try Virtual PC from microsoft. He may have the same problem, too.

  It will be very appreciated if there is no solution for this problem.

  Thank you very much!
  Mike

  Dear Mike is a rather complicated question. I mean Toshiba muss well deliver books and work with the factory settings, everything should work fine.
  If you use some third-party software of the part and if something goes wrong, it can be really complicated.

  Who is responsible for support here?
  I hope that someone on this forum has exactly the same specifications, the setting, the operating system and additional software like you and can help you with this.

• PlayBook Simulator beta (Win) v0.9.3 - cannot install in VMware Player

  Hello everyone. I am fairly new to this programming PlayBook and have to face a frustrating problem. I installed the earlier version and have been more or less successful in programming.

  However, with the new version, I am unable to install the Simulator in VMware Player. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, re-downloaded and re-installed, etc. and continue to have the following in the on-screen display in the last step of the installation of the virtual machine.

  In the earlier version, the display shows - loading of the neutrinos... and proceeded to complete the installation.

  In this version the display shows - loading installer... .and poster cd/EULA.txt in the bottom of the first screen scrolling text. I can scroll up and down and display a lot of text but nothing continues or finishes the installation of the virtual machine.

  I would like suggestions.

  BTW, my system is Windows 7, 64-bit, 6 GB memory, 800 GB of disk space.

  Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

  Terry

  It is (very) difficult.

  Do not press the "enter" or the arrow key down.

  You should stop to support anything at all times when only a few lines of text to the left.

  Then down one line at a time. Otherwise your entry extra will be interpreted as

  your answer to the question who is supposed to be 'y '.

  You will be successful after trying several times.

• CentOS 7 in VMWare Player 7 bug report

  Hello

  Don't know if this is the right place to post so please let me know if I'm in the wrong place, but I've been hit problems with VMWare Player 7 installation of CentOS and Ubuntu:

  I had several problems with anything CPU intensive while trying to set up a CentOS 7

  Workstation inside VMWare Player 7.  This is a new KDE workstation installation out of the box

  with maven installed via yum.  The system has been fully updated via # yum update.

  This problem happens every time I try to compile Apache spark 1.1.0 with maven.  However, it seemed

  be the case with other applications, including the GNOME desktop.  I tried the MATE as office

  Well and still have the problem.

  Environment:

  Host:

  VMWare Player 7.0.0 build-2305329

  Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit 6.1.7601, Service Pack 1

  4 core CPU AMD64

  16 GB OF RAM

  Comments:

  CentOS-7, 0-1406-x86_64 (installation of KDE)

  2 carrots

  ~ 11 GB of RAM (tried with different values)

  HARD DRIVE 60 GB

  A CPU intensive causes this deadlock.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1 install CentOS-7, 0-1406

  2 $ sudo yum install maven

  3 update of $ sudo yum

  4 Download spark 1.1.0 Apache sources of http://spark.apache.org/downloads.html and uncompress

  5 $ cd spark - 1.1.0

  $6 export MAVEN_OPTS = "" - Xmx2g - XX: MaxPermSize = 512 M - XX: ReservedCodeCacheSize = 512 m ""

  $7 mvn - Pyarn - Phadoop - 2.2 - Dhadoop.version = 2.2.0 - DskipTests clean package

  Finally, the machine hangs, and a hard reset is required.

  I don't know if it's a question of CentOS, a core issue or, more likely, a matter of VMWare Player.

  Allowing "Virtualization technology" in the system bios corrects this problem

• Debian Linux Bootloader and VMware Player and Windows 8.1

  I installed VMware on laptop windows 8.1 and begins installation of Debian Linux.

  Warnings about partitions and especially the bootloader potentially make my laptop not boot gave me cold feet so I bypassed the charger installation of.

  At this point Windows system seems to be intact.

  So here's my question. If I come back and install the boot loader, boot linux OS only when I press on play on VMware Player or it will make windows unbootable?

  If the latter, how do I install the bootloader on a USB?

  Hi again, plc775!

  Severe warnings are because the operating system has no idea that it is inside a virtual machine comfortably insulated from the rest of your host.  As long as you created the virtual machine in a pretty normal way (for example, by using the instructions in your other post) and did not have something really unusual (for example, through a physical disk from the host to the virtual machine), hard disk of the virtual machine is quite secluded and the guest is unable to make your host does not start and you can go ahead and install this Bootstrapper on the hard disk of the virtual machine.

  (By the way, I noticed that you post in the forum VMware ESXi 5... I'll make both of your messages on the VMware Player forum, where they will receive a more appropriate audience.)

  See you soon,.

• VMWare Player installation and Installation of the software in the virtual disk

  Hi people,

  I installed VMWare game in the free Version. I want to use the virtual disk for a Windows XP operating system. I have the following question for my main system (8.1 Windows 64 bit system stand-alone system).

  1.

  I installed a Windows XP 64-bit with SP 2 system. In this virtual disk, I installed a software that needs several software components. I managed to install all the components, but one. This component is WindowsInstaller-KB893803-package x 86 lot. If Intry to install the following error notice appears: "Ce KB893803v2 is for a different hardware platform." How can I make this software to obtain the virtual hardware information (i.e. not information of the current build-in components for Windows 8.1).

  2.

  While I did all the settings in Windows XP SP2 in the virtual disk on 'German' keyboard assignment is American. How can I change this?

  3.

  I have a 64-bit Windows 8.1 system on my computer (I think it said 'Host system'). Can I install a Windows XP 32-bit system in the Ramdisk anyway?

  Please answer in detail. I thank in advance for your answers.

  Kind regards. Mainze

  
  

  Don't worry too much on the OS host and/or physical hardware like handles of VMware Player, which is required to run Supportepar OSes as guests, for the most part, a layer of virtualized hardware.  Windows XP 32-bit should work fine in VMware Player on your 64-bit Windows 8.1 host.

• VMware Player vs Workstation

  I'm puzzled on the VMware site, trying to find a product matrix explaining why I should additionally vmplayer or vm workstation.  I downloaded and played with workstation - feels solid.  Before that I spend an additional $ 150, can someone tell me the differences between player and workstation albums?  A direct link would be nice as well.

  Follow-up questions - if I have already created with Workstation, VMS vmplayer will launch them?

  Does vmplayer support import of old Windows Xp virtual machines (supported by Windows 7 Pro)?

  Thanks, and I appreciate all the answers.

  Hi and welcome to communities,

  This is a beautiful table with a comparison of features: compare VMware Workstation 10 9 of VMware Workstation and VMware Player Plus | United States

  Yes, the player can run virtual machines created with the workstation.

  And Yes, it can also work XP virtual machines.

• Fatal error of VMware Player

  Hello

  I am brand new here. Apologies for not being able to carefully check if this has been answered before. I realize that I'm not the one with this problem, but I am simply unable to realize that solutions really apply to me.

  Any help is much appreciated!

  I have been using VMware Player without problems for a while now and tonight she just won't start, and I get this error:

  Fatal error VMware Player: (vmplayer)

  0xc0000006 (disk when paging error) exception occurred.

  See attached for more information. I'm not a techie, so I really need all the help I can get! (Someone wrote that the addition of the whole journal was harsh, but I don't know just what to include and what not to do!)

  A little desperately yours.

  DEX.

  Because I don't have an answer, I have hade to wade into some answers to previous similar questions. Among the varieties of deleting some files (which I wouldn't do), I also found the idea quite simple to check disk running. (For more information, see performing a check disk (1004003).)

  Fortunately, this did the trick for me! I was a little surprised by this great result, but possibly virtual are more fragile than the guest machines disk errors? I do not know.

  But I'm sure glad it worked for me. Now my VMware Player is running again!

• Can VMware Player run multiple instances of the same VM?

  I looked around but could find an answer to this question. If it has already been answered, please feel free to point me to that answer. I am relatively new to VMware Player, so this may seem like a stupid question. Please bear with me.

  I've been running Linux in a virtual machine using VMware Player 5.0.2 on Win7 and I would like to start another instance of the same virtual machine, simultaneously. When I try to launch the image once again, VMware asks if I want to take possession of the virtual machine running, but does not give the opportunity to start another instance.

  Is it because it is not possible to run two instances of the same VM, or y at - it another way to get there?

  Welcome to the community,

  This can be done. If another instance would be allowed to use the same file system, the guest operating system would be very likely corrupt the file system. What is possible - at least with VMware Workstation - is to create clones related, where the Basic virtual disk is the same (open in read-only mode), but writes go to independent virtual disk files.

• Using a recovery disk to install on VMWare Player

  I apologize if I am posting this in the wrong place, but I'm finding things to do in VirtualBox, but I want to know if it is possible to do in VMWare. When I bought this laptop, it had Windows on it and I made a recovery disk which is locked on my laptop hardware and then installed crunchbang linux and VMWare Player under him. I run dmidecode for my list of equipment. Now, my question is, is there a way to change the material of the VMWare to emulate the hardware of my laptop so I can install on my recovery disk? Otherwise I'll have to go to the local store and buy Windows.

  The only material that is passed to the VM is the CPU - another hard while is virtualized.

  My situation:

  Developer of novice using a laptop Windows 7 with Ubuntu Server on VMWare Player.

  Customer need and server side development progress on the computer laptop while at home and outside (travel, sometimes without internet/Wi-Fi connection)

  I tried NAT, Bridged, Host-only, and can't seem to find an approach that works offline...

  More details below...

  How to configure the network to use VMWare player for development while home/away (PCI offline without an internet connection)?

  Thanks again

  Other details

  My laptop runs Win7, I use Google Chrome, PuTTY, WinSCP client-side

  My hardware router has an IP address 192.168.0.1

  My VMware - Server Ubuntu - is configured to use the DHCP protocol

  Online I mean a wireless connection to the router and the internet

  Offline - I mean wireless internet connection/no

  Networking networking

  Works ok online. Does not work in offline mode

  When online, I get IP 192.168.0.7 ifconfig in vmware... I can ping the router from the virtual machine and ping the server ubuntu from the command-line to Win7

  Offline... Ping from VM to the router and Ping from Win7 to VM fail.

  NAT networking

  Does not work online or offline

  When 'online' I get IP 192.168.91.128 to ifconfig in VMware, I can ping the router hardware virtual machine ok. When I ping the server ubuntu command line of Win 7 I Request Timed Out

  In offline mode, I get the same IP 192.168.91.128 to ifconfig in the virtual machine. I can't ping the virtual machine hardware router... Destination Host Unreachable. When I ping the server ubuntu command line of Win 7 I have inaccessible Destination host

  Host-Only

  does not work for me either online of offline...

  While online, that is to say that I can get the IP... 192 168 110 128 but the virtual machine can't ping router... Network unreachable. Win7 cannot ping server... Request Timed Out

  While offline, I get the same address IP 192 168 110 128, but VM is unable to ping router network unreachable. Win7 cannot ping server... Destination Host Unreachable

  On the screenshot-VMnet1 as VMnet8 - have APIPA (assigned automatically free private) IP addresses, which should not be the case. Unfortunately I can't tell you what is the cause! Could be something of a facility fails to a VPN client. What you can do, is click on the 'Restore defaults' button in the editor of virtual network or re - install VMware Player (uninstall, reboot the host and reinstall "as Administrator").

  If you have access to the virtual network editor depends on the VMware Player version you are using. With some older versions - which had the "vmnetui.dll" in the installation folder - it was possible to start to operate:

  rundll32.exe vmnetui.dll VMNetUI_ShowStandalone

• VMware Player, really bad performance.

  Hello

  I'm a really bad, unusable performance with any client VMware. I've tried combinations of:

  VMware Player and VMware 10.

  XP, Win 7, Linux Mint operating systems, among others.

  All comments VM to run incredibly slow. Some of the questions include:

  Movement of the mouse very slow/lag

  Takes less than 60 seconds for firefox, or any program to open.

  When a program is open, the shift makes it just unusable.

  I tried to install the computer virtual invited to different readers, including an SSD.

  I tried the resolutions of 800 x 600 up to full screen.

  I downloaded and installed the latest VMware tools.

  I searched and tried all the possible solutions I found on google for the last 2 weeks.

  I checked the Bios to ensure that virtualization is on.

  I tried to vary the amount of Ram and CPU available on the guest virtual machine.

  Course record:

  I7 2600 k

  mem 32g

  SSD and a couple of WD black 1 TB drives

  XFX 7950 DD Black Edition

  I am at a loss. If anyone has any ideas what else I could check it would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello Weinstein and thank you for the answer.

  The host operating system uses Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit, and for the programs that are running, it may be a fresh restart with only the usual windows services.

  With respect to the way in which the guest virtual computer is configured, I tried varying amounts of ram and cpu. But as it is currently is:

  Memory 2 GB

  2 processors 'virtualization = automatic engine.

  (SCSI) hard drive 60 GB

  NIC NAT

  Any other information needed please let me know, I'd really like to get this working. I got it on my old machine, a processor AMD/MB. When I built this Intel machine he developed suddenly problems...

  Hmm, motherboard info if no help:

  ASRock Z77 Extreme 4

  Edit... After addition of the motherboard in my google search, it may possibly be a Bios problem with this motherboard. From the looks of him, I may have to go back to an older version of bios. Investigation is ongoing.

  Edit #2... After rolling back to the version of the Bios 2.5 it seems that my problems have disappeared.

  For all those who use the ASRock Extreme 4 with a processor 2600 k flash bios to version 2.5

  There are known problems using a processor 'K' with this motherboard and VT and bios versions more recent than 2.5 seem to have done even worse...
