VMware tools are not available

Good day to all.

I'm trying to get a picture of old Win98 installed in VMplayer 3.14.  The host is Win 7 64 bit.

The image is an Acronis image made when the Win98 box was commissioned in 2006.  The Virtual Machine and went through a lot of screens 'new search', on which he seems to work fine.  However, the video resolution is terrible (640 x 480, 16-color.)

The problem is that I don't seem to be able to install VMware Tools.  More specifically, go to the Virtual Machine-> and trying to find the installer shows only that "VMware Tools" not available

I'm quite new to VMware and don't know what I should try next.

For any help or suggestions appreciated!

Here's a direct download link.  "Détarer" it and then run the .exe excerpt and this will install the winPre2K.iso in VMware Player.

    I have vmware player v6 on a windows machine

    I installed windows 7 as a virtual machine on a windows computer, but I can't get vmware tools to install - because the installation process does not start.

    In the vmware window, I click on manage/player/install VMware tools and nothing happens, never. I get no start installation upward. So I tried also to start/run/D:\setup and I get "Please insert a disc into the dvd drive. It's so useless, nothing I will get the installer to start and after trawling google ages each page says the same thing, which is what I tried already and who never works. WTF |. I have to do to get the vmware tools installer to run?

    Edit: I also tried to download and tools-windows - 9.6.1.exe running and who has done sweet FA as well.

    If you are using VMware Player 6.0,1 on a Windows host and you want to install VMware Tools in Windows 7, then do what follows is workaround to which question you encounter that does not automatically download the VMware Tools.

    Tools-windows - 9.6.1.exe.tar on the host, not the comments, download and unzip it.  Then run the file tools-windows - 9.6.1.exe.  This (silently) installs VMware Tools for Windows (windows.iso) in the working directory of VMware Player.  You should then be able to install VMware Tools normally on the Menu, but if it doesn't work then fix the windows.iso of CD/DVD virtual machine and run the installation from the Windows virtual machine.

  • How to get address Virtual Machine MAC on which vmware tools is not installed

    Hello

    I'm putting the MAC address of a virtual machine in a string. At first, I was using this script:

    strMACAddress = objVM.guest.net [0] .macAddress;

    But as indicated in the title, the vmware tools are not installed on the virtual machine. I found a similar position in vSphere Web Services SDK:

    http://communities.VMware.com/thread/254204

    In this post, it is specified to use the script VcVirtualEthernetCard() object. I'm new to Orchestrator and I do not understand how to make a "myVcVirtualEthernetCard" link to my virtual computer object 'objVM '.

    Example:

    IN: objVM (VcVirtualMachine)

    OUT: macAddress

    var myVcVirtualEthernetCard = new VcVirtualEthernetCard();

    macAddress var = myVcVirtualEthernetCard.macAddress;

    Thank you for your help.

    Kind regards

    Hello!

    You can browse the table config.hardware.device of the virtual machine:

    IN: vm (Vc:VirtualMachine)

    DEPARTURES: Macaddresses (Array/string)

    //initialize macAddresses array (to make a push() possible later)
    macAddresses = new Array();
    var deviceArray = vm.config.hardware.device;
    if (!deviceArray) throw "Error getting hardware config array of VM";
        System.debug("deviceArray: " + deviceArray);
    //loop through array, find NICs and retrieve there MACs
    for (var i in deviceArray) {
        var currentDevice = deviceArray.pop();
        if (currentDevice) {
            System.debug("currentDevice: " + currentDevice);
            if (currentDevice instanceof VcVirtualE1000 ||

  • OfficeJet Pro 8210: network capabilities are not available.

    Hi, I have been setting up the printer above but I need to put in place on a network. I don't have the network option as it says "network capabilities are not available. When I print the network configuration page, it says network capacities have been disabled when the device has been implemented. I did not disable anything. The user manual says to use the display and move to restore the configuration - tools. I don't have an option to restore the screen of the printer. Please can you help me to reset the printer to factory settings. I'm a COMPUTER tech so don't know what I'm doing.

    Kind regards

    CMS

    Hi @CMS61,

    Welcome to the HP Forums! It is a wonderful location to converse with the community, get help and find resolutions. I understand that you don't have the network option on your printer as it says "network capabilities are not available. I'll be happy to help you in this regard. Great job, looking for user manual for the printer. It's always a privilege to work with a COMPUTER technician like you.

    However, to answer your question about resetting the default printer, it is possible by accessing the menu before display.

    • Turn your printer off.
    • Wait 10 seconds before you turn it back on again.
    • Just as the printer is turned on, press the back (arrow) button on the front panel of the printer "4 times."
    • If you do it right, the support menu should appear.

    Menu Access resets

    There are several options in the Help menu. To access the menu resets all what you need to do is navigate to the right until you find the menu "resets". Under Reset menu, you will find the three different types of resets, reset partial, semi full reset and reset complete. Select the appropriate type of reset you need, and your printer should reset itself.

    The partial reset

    Delivery to zero partial just updates the printer and erases the memory of the printer useless. This type of reset fixes minor printing problems like slow printing cartridge errors, etc...

    The semi-complete reset

    The semi Full Reset is the most useful type of reset. However, this clears all the custom of your printer settings and returns it to its default factory settings. Use this reset if the partial reset does not solve the problem.

    Please do not perform a full reset.

    It will be useful to visit these links.

    Hello Syed,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    This problem may occur because of damaged or missing Windows files. This can also happen if associated service is not running.

    I suggest you to check if the "Windows Management Instrumentation" service is running as set as Automatic.

    Please follow these steps:

    a. press Windows + R key, type services.msc in the immediate window and press ENTER.
    b. right click on "Windows Management Instrumentation" and click Properties.
    c. make sure that the service status is running and Startup type is automatic.
    d. If not, select the Startup type to Automatic and click on 'Start'.
    e. click apply and ok.

  • Reference data are not available in version 12.1 on Windows XP5.1 operating system distribution

    Hello

    I get the error "reference data are not available for release 12.1 on the distribution of the Windows XP5.1 operating system" when the installation program runs the verification of prerequisites to install Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise on 64-bit computer. Am I missing another precondition that I'm not aware of this couldn't cause this error?

    Thank you!

    Hello world

    There is a bug in the installer. Here is the workaround:

    After checking the installation program is not running, please open that file in the staging area where you have unpacked ODAC:

    ...\stage\cvu\cv\admin\cvu_config

    And in this file, change the CV_ASSUME_DISTID value that is there to 6.1

    Save the changes, and then rerun Setup.

    This will force the installer to requires that you have Windows 7.

    Thank you

  • VMWare Tools does not

    Hi team,

    I cloned (copied the entire record of this virtual machine via scp copy) a virtual of Vcenter Vcenter 5.0 4.1 machine. But after turning on the machine (in Vcenter 5.0), is to show VMware tools are running up-to-date. Can someone please explain to me how I can install VMware tools for this virtual machine.

    Thanks in advance,

    Sisi.

    No,

    If you use standard options, vm will automatically update the tools and do a restart.

    If you do not wan´t to automatically restart the virtual machine, you may use the interactive update and open a console on the virtual machine.

    The CD of tools will be automatically mounted to your virtual machine and you could install the tool manual.

    What should I do?

    Looking at your mistakes, you seem to have an earlier version of the tools which are not uninstaled or tools are coming from another source when the installation program checks the files are already claimed. I first uninstall everything that claims these files and possibly clean/regen your db packace if necessary. Then, reinstall the tools and see if you still get errors with no alert clobber.

Maybe you are looking for
