Re Vmware Tools not installing SCSI and VGA drivers not installed
Please help as my kids need this VM- have several of their educational programs in it that don't want to put to Windows 8 host as these are older progs and took many weeks to setup for them.
I am using Vmware Player 6 and trying to install on XPPro Sp3 Guest. Vmdk image was made as Vmware Player 2 image via MOA cold clone converter Vmware Ver 3 Converter (as could not get latest ver to work to hot clone xp -too many errors re VSS snapshots reached maximum)
Issue getting worse now - cannot install tools at all in normal mode administrator -just whole system hangs after login - can't click or open any folders either.
In safe mode get bluescreen stop error after a short while -maybe due to not having SCSI and VGA drivers loaded ERROR CODES (0x0000008E (0xC0000005, OxF4409948 (this keeps changing) and 0x00000000 )
Vmware tools in safe mode crashes after it tries to run installer with log files (attached) -something about error code 1625 but don't know what to do with this. I have recently uninstalled Daemon Tools and Alcohol sptd drivers in case conflicting. Tried to remove all vmware in reg but it crashes to a blue screen and cannot remove all entries but have uninstalled allvmware other programs now on guest.
Tried also adding vmware to trusted installer certificates using certmanger on guest.
Not sure whether can try Vm, as is, safely in Virtual Box if can't run here or convert to VDI or Hyper-V image to try in others, or will have same SCSI etc issues as here?
Already have activated guest in Vmware Player, not sure if will be asked to activate again in others?
Any other suggestions?
