I recently installed the VMware Workstation 7.1.1 from your site on my *laptop ASUS g73JH
(with i7, 8GBRAM, RAdeon HD 5780).
*
Install was successful, then I installed the VMWare Tools.
After doing this, I wanted to restart the system.
The system hanged on displaying "System is shutting down".
After the hard reset I was able to start the VM again.. everything seem
to be fine.
But my USB modem on the host OS (win7) didn't function anymore, *auto-run
was corrupted* (although it was enabled in settings), system was *randomly
freezing*.. etc
After restarting the same problem - I couldn't shutdown.
I formated the drive, reinstalled OS. Installed VMWare again.. the same issues occured again.
Anyone had the same problem?
I've tried VMWare Player and VMWare Workstation.
The system was able to correctly shutdown, but issues with USB and autorun took place again..
My Laptop is about 1 Month old. How do I reinstall the system? I use the recovery image (F9 when booting up) with preinstalled drivers from ASUS !
the new implementation of USB is imho still work in progress ...
please check the USB related entries in the WS FAQ from my signature first please

It sounds like you're installing Tools in the host. Tools are used in guest OSes, not the host.
Nope. I am not that stupid
I installed it on guest
Hi
It's problem for W7 - I look this crash OS and after install VMware Workstation 6.5 and after install this, 7.1.1 version.
The all problem in %TEMP% in host OS - after install VMware this disk volume - is dirty...
You not need reinstall OS, you must run chkdsk only 8)))
Sorry.. I don't clearly understand, what's wrong with the TEMP folder.. when there are some files left.. what's the point? It's just a temp.. how could a CHKDSK help ?
Thanks anyways
