nicatronTg Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Hmmmm, I suggest that you reinstall vmware, but don't delete the machine its self. If the VM is sharing stuff inside the host, check that. Like if I run FF inside a VM, it will sometimes crash because of my firewall on the host blocking VMWare from the web. Quote
SomeoneE1se Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Vista + VMware* = Computer Death! I lost an entire HD to a VMware install on vista (fucking windows backup did nothing) Quote
Sparda Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Vista + VMware* = Computer Death! Vmware server + Ubuntu = fun all the way Quote
Razor512 Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 thats microsofts way of getting back at you for using vmware to run a better OS than vista, using vista Quote
nicatronTg Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 thats microsofts way of getting back at you for using vmware to run a better OS than vista, using vista ...and not using MS Virtual PC Quote
SmoothCriminal Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 thats microsofts way of getting back at you for using vmware to run a better OS than vista, using vista It's more Microsoft's way of making sure you use their virtualization products. Quote
