Vitrual Machine...

[Silent Whisper]

G'day guys and girls.

I'm kind of new here, so yeah G'day to everyone.

Umm, yeah I seem to being have troubles with the new
windows 8 and vmware player... I keep getting an error when she goes to load up.
I have tried vitrual box, but it won't install some of the drivers so I can activate it.

VMware will work maybe 3 out 10 times..
Is there a chance any of you guys can help?

Much appreciated.

What OS are you trying to install the VM on? Are you getting issues with VirtualBox after Windows 8 installs, or do you mean errors on the machine running the VM?

 

[Silent Whisper]

Windows 7 and Windows XP.

Its some kind of error in vmware.
I researched the error and everyone said to use v'box.

Going to have to generally agree virtualbox is a lot better. I have windows 8 running on it fine.

I have to agree to, my problem is the drivers?
did you have any troubles?

By the way thanks you in forward for your help

I just followed this:

Just make sure your computer/hardware can support all the features needed for it.
