Installation, Upgrade, and Compatibility
* When you upgrade VMware Workstation from a previous VMware Workstation release on a Windows Vista and Windows 7 host, one of thevmnet host virtual adapters might not be properly configured with a static IP address. After rebooting, ipconfig displays the adapter IP address as 169.x.x.x, instead of192.168.x.x.
Workaround: You can either assign the vmnet a new IP address using the Virtual Network Editor or complete the following steps on the Windows host:
1. SelectStart > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Connections.
2. Right-click the VMware Network Adapter from the list and select Diagnose.
* You can install VMwareWorkstation 7.0 only on hosts with CPUs that include physical address extension (PAE) support.
* On Windows Vista and Windows 7 hosts, you must run VMware Workstation asan administrator to Easy Install a Linux virtual machine when using a physical CD. During this process the user interface might be unresponsive for several minutes.
*Importing a Windows XP Mode virtual machine fails if you install VMware Workstation in a directory path that contains non-ASCII characters.
Workaround: Install VMwareWorkstation in a directory path containing only ASCII characters.
* On Linux hosts, attempting to reinstall the same version of VMware Workstation over an existing versiondoes not work, because all the components already exist on the host.
Workaround: To reinstall the same version of VMware Workstation, uninstall VMware Workstation, selectYes to save your configuration files, and reinstall.
* You cannot map a virtual disk if the VMware Workstation installation path contains characters from a non-systemlanguage. In this case, the error message Failed to initialize library for mounting and unmounting virtual disks appears and the Utilities > Map option becomesunavailable.
Workaround: Install VMware VMware Workstation 7.0 in a directory path that contains only characters from a local-system language.
