I'm afraid you would need to work with defective drive on real system.
Virtualization adds another layer of complexity, difficult to deal with, in this particular case.

The program running in the vm performs a series of read/writes in an attempt to recover data from the damaged drive. However, it is paused by vmware until I respond to the question with Continue. The popups occur so frequently that it makes running it in the vm useless. It seems like their should be a button to Continue All or something like that.

Please post a screenshot with those errors.
During what of your action do they appear?

Hi, I'm running vmware server 1.06 with linux as the host. Within the vm, I am running a program from an iso file to repair my secondary hard drive. However, vmware will not let it run because I keep getting "questions" about failed operations and such that I have to answer Abort, Continue or Retry. I expect such errors, and I simply want vmware to Continue without prompting me every time. Is there a way to disable such prompting and just let the vm run normally? Thanks..
