What version of the VMWare
Submitted by Kevin W on January 10, 2007 - 12:58pm.
What version of the VMWare Player was installed on the desktop?
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Can you provide the support logs to gather additional information about your system?
Presss Start the Engine and use Ctrl-Shift-F1 and this will start the LivePC Engine Support tool and it will create a zip file on the desktop. Please note that the support tool does not gather the m5engine.log from USB.
