What version of VMware?

 

The host machine is a 2 and a half year old dual core machine running Vista. I 
installed VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.exe which is the 507MB free server. I’ve 
been running more experiments with hardware acceleration and the VM Tools in 
different combinations. It seems that only setting the hardware acceleration 
totally OFF will overcome the Win7 freezes. Sadly, this cases the mouse to be 
slightly jittery, not as terribly jittery as it is with no VM Tools installed 
at all. Perhaps I can live with it like this just for the few weeks required to 
test all of my software in parallel.

 

Other people here seem to be using different combinations of the VMWare 
software, or other VM products completely. Their list of VMWare products is 
bewildering. I was under the impression that only the Server that I’m using is 
free.

 

I continue to experiment and I’ll report if I find anything useful.
