Windows under Vmware Workstation 7 8

Hello

With Vmware Workstation 8, can I create a virtual machine in which I could you Installer Windows 7?

Thanks in advance if anyone has any experience of this.

Kind regards

Yes, sure, no problem. And if you go on the Compatibility Guide ( http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility ), you're looking for in the guest operating system section, pay the proceeds Workstation with Windows 7 as OS name of family, you will find that Windows 7 and SP1, 32-bit or 64-bit are supported on WS 8.0. Also, if you create a new virtual machine, you can choose Windows 7 as guest operating system. It is the proof that it works.

  • Unable to Boot PXE under VMWare Workstation

    Note: This is a LABORATORY environment!

    I have 2 servers

    SRV1 - DHCP, ADDS

    SRV2 - WDS

    Both are installed in VMWare Workstation 12 and is assigned to a Segment named "Server LAN" local network.

    I have 2 Workstation

    WKS1 - no BONES and Belonged to a local Network Segment named "LAN Workstation"

    WKS2 - with OS (Win8) and Belonged to a local Network Segment named "LAN Workstation"

    1 Virtual router connected both the Segment of LAN 'Server LAN' and 'LAN workstation.

    Virtual router is configufed for transfer/DHCP relay.

    I can say that the DHCP relay works because WKS2 can get an ip address from the SRV1 when starting Windows 8. However, WKS1 and WKS2 in PXE startup I get this message.

    Any ideas?

    I solved the problem, it turns out that option 66 and 67 was not configured in my DHCP for the scope that has been maintaining the "LAN workstation.

    I have configured the DHCP in SRV1

    Option 66 for point on my WDS server.

    and Option 67 to point to the 64-bit version of wdsnbsp.com in the wds server.

  • Ubuntu 9.10 not working do not under Vmware Workstation 7

    My OS is Windows 7 pro and I'm using Vmware Workstation 7. I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed and it is powered OFF.  He worked at one point but does not work now. "I get ' permission on file - cannot locate the VMDK errors."   I want to upgrade from VMware Workstation 8. Should I go to the control panel and REMOVE Ubuntu 9.10 before installing Workstation 8 or will the upgrade fix, regardless of the errors I receive?   Any suggestions or ideas will be greatly appreciated.   Thanks in advance.

    From what you wrote it would be interesting to check the permissions of NTFS from the virtual computer. You should check the files using the Explorer. Where is your computer virtual stored or saved? Have you moved?

  • Is there a way to hide the menu in windowed mode VMware Workstation 8 bar?

    While in windowed mode is there a way to hide the menu bar on a crowd of Win7?  This menu bar is absolutely huge (about 2 x as large as it should be!) so I was wondering if it was possible to get rid of it?  I know it was possible in older versions, because I found some guides on how to do it.  These guides apply to Workstation 8.  I don't want to use the unit because it's too hard to keep the instances of BONE separate and organized in a meaningful way.

    If any VMware staff are reading this, I would recommend that VMware uses a menu bar of title as Firefox 8 on Windows 7.  With the little drop down menu built into the title bar of the window instead of a space hogging the menu bar stretched all the way in all top of the window.  Or at least implement a combination of keys in option show/hide the menu bar. Please?

  • Windows 7: VMWare Workstation with XP as a guest.  Problem with SP2.

    On a computer with XP virtual on, I am trying to run SP2.  SP2 is in a file to the host.  SP2 is not XP and trying to change Windows 7.  It fails.  I do not want to load the workstation tools up to what XP SP2.  Maybe I missed something in the manual (excellent!). Solution?

    Without VMware tools, the easiest way would be to create an ISO image that contains SP2 (or better SP3) and transfer this as a CD-ROM drive to the XP VM.

    I install Windows XP Professional 32-bit and I have this problem it goes directly on the formatting and copying files. I can't redirect on the part of partitioning of the installation. Any ideas on how to tinker with the settings? so that I could enter the virtual disk partitioning option. I also encounter this even tried windows 7 and still cannot partition the drive. Just go directly on installing part. But in the Linux operating system like ubuntu, pretty and zorin sound correct, it's just windows os, I have this problem. Really need help please.

  • 2.04 Ubuntu comments on VMware Workstation 9 under Win7 can't see ext4 USB drive

    Comments from 2.04 Ubuntu on VMware Workstation 9 under Win7: on computer A trivially, I connected to an out-of-the-box 64 GB USB drive formatted for VFAT on Ubuntu in a VM. I re-init'ed the player for ext4 (mkfs.ext4), mounted, drop a bunch of stuff on him (which took awhile), he dismounted and walked away. The next day, identically configured computer B, I inserted the USB key. Natch, Win7 may not go up because it does not ext4. But Ubuntu don't see either, so I can't be installed. Do not see under removable devices, no small icon bottom left of the screen of VMware, nothing in the settings menus or properties, etc. I think it's just me being a noob to VMware, but it seems that Ubuntu under VMware Workstation 9 cannot see the drive unless Win7 can go up. Seems unlikely. KB searching, Googling, etc. produce many unrelated things. Ideas? AdvTHANKSance.

    Here is the final answer: works great on an earlier version of VMware Workstation 9 on one of the Windows 7 of my client machines, it didn't work on my Windows 7 computer. I upgraded to VMware Workstation 10 on my Windows 7 computer, and now it works perfectly. If I call you this a bug in this version later 9 which was set at 10. Could also be had I simply uninstalled 9 and reinstalled which would have fixed it too. But I'll never know.

  • What version of Windows host running better on VMWare Workstation 32 or 64?

    Hello

    IM planning to install VMWare Workstation and I want to hear what you guys have to say on what host Windows works better under VMWare Workstation platform.

    Will install Windows on Macbook Pro C2D 4 GB operating system.

    KR,

    Cristiano Botelho

    on a 4 Gb machine 32-bit and 64-bit systems probably all detect 3.x GB RAM just so you can use a good 32-bit or a 64-bit system.

    My first choice staff would be 2003 32-bit, but you will be here other recommendations as well.

    This question usually results in contradictory answers... you have been warned

  • Can we install Windows 64 bit OS in Vmware workstation 6.5

    Hello

    I have install Windows 2008 R2 64-bit and according to what I have install VMware workstation 6.5, but I'm not able to install the 64-bit comments under vmware workstation windows operating system

    Thank you

    Hardware support is necessary to isolate the hypervisor of the guest.  Intel does not segment limit checks in 64-bit mode, so VT is necessary to isolate the hypervisor of a 64-bit guest. See KB 1003945.

  • Update Windows 10 November (10586 aka 1511): bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype off, but VMware Workstation does not start VMs with conflict of Hyper-V

    Hi all

    I upgraded from Windows 10 Windows 10 November updated this morning.

    I have the Hyper-V role is installed and use it from time to time, but bcdedit to configure the boot loader to disable Hyper-V by hypervisorlaunchtype power off.

    This technique has worked with 10 Windows and VMware Workstation and I could start and run virtual machines

    Since I did the upgrade, I can't start VM with this standard message "VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible"

    I am running VMware Workstation 10, but suspect that this problem also exists with later versions.

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    Someone at - he found a solution?

    I'm willing to fork over $150 for 12 workstations to solve this problem, but I want to know with certainty that it is circumventing my problem.

    Thanks for that.

    Uninstallation and reinstallation of the hyper-v feature, following the upgrade of Windows Windows 10 November 10 update solved the problem.

    I still need to run the following command to disable the Hyper-V technology

    bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype

    Thanks to everyone for their help.

  • I have a problem starting up a Windows XP Pro Machine virtual Windows 8 host system (which has VMware Workstation 10.1).

    I am new to the virtual machines.  For several months I've been running a Windows XP Virtual Machine in an old machine of Windows 7 with VMware Workstation 7.0.  The hard drive is having some problems at times, so I thought that I could move the virtual machine on a new computer that has an OS 8.1 Windows and VMware Workstation 10.  For example, on the Windows 7 machine, I copied the directory with all the * .vm files and pasted into the machine to Windows 8. But when I tried to start VMware Workstation 10 in Windows 8 machine, I got the message "this virtual machine policies are too old to be run by this version of VMware."  I went to the knowledge base and used the solution described here: I've deleted the lines of three 'policy' of the .vmx file and added the suffix .ancien to the .vmpl file, which actually disabled.  Now, when I try to start the virtual machine, the black screen appears with the VMware logo in the Center and everything seems fine, but Windows XP starts.  And logo VMware guard churning away as in a continuous loop.  It is not easy to stop.  The only way to stop VMware is via the Task Manager or restart the machine.

    What must I do to get the Windows XP Pro VM to run in the new machine?

    VMWare technical support suggested that I have disable 3D acceleration (VM > settings > view and uncheck the box 3D graphics acceleration).  The virtual machine starts now with some minor problems, but it is usable.  But by closing accel 3D turns, in the words of the Technical Support Engineer, David, that there is "a problem with the graphics card not imitate or through its capacity to the virtual machine.  In other words do not support to the VM guest 3D acceleration. "My next step is to make sure that I have the updated driver for the Intel HD Graphics 4600 display adapter.

    Minor problems are:

    (1) the virtual machine works best in screen mode reduced.  There are a few problems speed mode full-screen.

    (2) the VM will still work after switching on of the host.  But after execution of the virtual machine, if power you the virtual machine and the release of VMware workstation, then later, start the workstation, the virtual machine will power not.

    To turn it on again you must out of VMware Workstation, disconnect the host machine and then reopen it in one.

  • 6u2 ESXi host nested on VMware Workstation for Linux referee v12

    Hello all, I have

    I have a lab environment virtual running in VMware Workstation for Linux v12, and my ESXi hosts do not work correctly on one of the virtual networks. All my troubleshooting suggests a problem with nested ESXi hosts that may be a bug, but I want to assure you that I did everything properly first. That's why I post here with the hope that if I made a mistake that maybe someone else can point out he me.

    Physical system

    8 core Intel Xeon 2.1 GHz CPU

    128 GB of RAM

    OS - kernel Linux 64 - bit w/3.19.0-32-generic Linux Mint 17.3 (fully updated from this announcement)

    VMware Workstation 12 Pro - 12.1.1. Build-3770994 (fully updated from this announcement)

    Nested ESXi host VM

    ESXi v6.0.0 (Build 3825889, completely updated from this announcement)

    4 cards 'physical' (only 3 used for now)

    -all use the e1000 NIC hardware virtual, but also tried vmxnet3 NIC with no difference

    -vSwitch0 use vmnic0 & 1 vmnet16 of virtual network in a pair of active / standby

    -vSwitch1 uses vmnic2 on network virtual vmnet18

    -vmk0 used for management on vSwitch0 and vmk1 for iSCSI on vSwitch1

    -"Promiscuous" mode and forged passes enabled on all Port vSwitch groups (activating or turning off these features makes no difference)

    Test performed until now

    I checked that all the IP addresses and network masks used are correct.

    With the help of vmkping I ping other nodes on the network vmnet16 with success.

    With the help of vmkping I tried to ping the other nodes in the network vmnet18, but that has failed.

    I have depolyed other non - ESXi VMs on the vmnet18 network, and they are able to ping each other, but are unable to ping or ping by the ESXI host.

    I tried various material virtual NIC as mentioned before, but without changes in the results.

    I tried to use only local network instead of the vmnet18 guest network segments with no change in results.

    When I find out the status of the network adapters on the ESXi host through vCenter or host incorporated client vmnic0 & 1 time display network information, but vmnic2 shows no networks. Yet, I know that there is a network with different VM communicate on it. Moreover, I was able to get all of this work on a Windows system running 10 Workstation (this is the laptop that my employer gives me with).

    Having built nested ESXi labs on different platforms as well as physical environments in the past, I'm very confused as to why I can't get this special configuration to work. At this point my gut tells me that this is probably a bug any with the nested themselves ESXi hosts. Since I can get all this work on vmnet16 including the management of ESXi hosts and the VCSA that I use, I am sure that my vSwitch configuration is correct (other than the IP address space and vmnic configurations is bascially the same). Because I can get other virtual machines to communicate over the network vmnet18 I don't see how can be a VMware Workstation for the issue physical Linux host. Is there something obvious I'm missing here? I read on the ESXi hosts nested under VMware Workstation after having known problems and bugs with networking. If anyone else has experienced this?

    Thanks for any help others can provide!

    Kind regards

    Well, the problem is now resolved. The problem was what covelli was trying to explain, but I couldn't because the physical host network adapters being mentioned.

    The problem on the Linux host, but it was a problem of permissions with the virtual Ethernet adapters. The following article has the fix:
    With the help of Ethernet virtual cards in Promiscuous Mode on a Linux host (287) | VMware KB

    Even if I launched the workstation under the root user I have yet met this problem and which still makes no sense to me, but change the permissions solve the problem. I was not getting an error message on my Linux Mint and Ubuntu system, but when I tried on a second box of Linux Mint that I just got the error has been generated, and the error message was the above link it contains.

    So, here's what I learned:

    (1) the question has nothing to with a VMware Workstation definition that you can configure.

    (2) the question has nothing to do with a physical network card.
    (3) the question has nothing to do with any vmnic on the nested ESXi host.

    (4) apparently virtual Ethernet adapters are not the correct permissions when created.

    All you have to do to fix this is:

    (1) open a terminal.

    (2) run the command ' sudo chmod a + rw/dev/vmnet * "(don't forget to run this each time that you create a new virtual network).

    You can also create a group, as shown in the link above and simply give this group the correct permissions. Personally, I think it's easier to just give everyone the rw permission.

    I appreciate the help that others have offered. I did not understand what was asked for in previous answers because of the terms that have been used.
