VMWare Problems

Hi,

I installed NOD32 after facing some problems with McAfee. The 1st thing I noticed is that ProxyCap did not work, so I searched the forums and did this

Now ProxyCap works but all my VMWare virtual systems are not able to acquire IPs!! Any help?? I have Fedora 7, CentOS5, Windows XP, and Windows 2003.

 

a quick search on google seems to indicate that resetting winsock in this way MIGHT remove VM Services from the network stack - this is something that a VMware expert might comment on - but I think the resolution is VMware related, not NOD32...

 

I dont think so. I removed VMware, rebooted the machine, insatalled it again. But that did not help.

 

after installation, do vm services start on the machine?

(reason I'm asking that I am no vmware expert - but I did sit through a demo of some nod32 new features on a vmware system - ie, I've seen nod32 working with vmware).

 

VMware services seem OK http://i8.tinypic.com/4uu8j0k.png

thnx for the help

I have 2 options:

1. remove NOD32, I do not want to do that. My system runs smoothly!
2. remove VMware!!! will not happen

 

why is the vmware agent service set to manual - as I said - not an expert, but I generally would not expect any of the vmware services to be set to manual - automatic is what I would expect. Try changing that service and restarting.
