Java crashes Workstation 8?

Hi there!

 

I'm new to this group and recently installed workstation 8 to build a virtual machine with windows 8.

Player 3 didn't work, but Workstation 8 worked well.

 

Now I do different tests with my software on different windows versions and now had to do this with workstation.

All went well ... until I started a java program to create a pdf file.

The desktop froze and looked like breaking to pieces ... lots of triangular pieces of the screen while a tiny screen was visible too.

This happened with different java versions (1.4.2 and 1.6) and I could see, that "java -version" worked within the command line.

But when "java -jar xyz.jar" tried to create a message box or other sort of dialogue element, the vm crashed.

 

So I had to go back to player 3.1 and all works well again ... but the windows 8 vm ...

 

Did anyone see this happen, too?

 

Best regards

Perotin
