are you running any other virtual machine applications at the same time ? - like VirtualPC , VirtualBOX or this XP-special mode of Win 7 ?
Do you have any of those installed ?

What happens if you type

net start vmx86

in a cmd ?

Can you post a vmware.log ? - look inside the directory of the VM

so you have Virtual PC installed ? - that maybe the reason - do you have the VirtualPC monitor-driver running when you get the BSODs with VMware ?

hmmm ... running out of options ...
can you post
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\vmx86

I'd clean up some parameters next but need to see them in your case first

that looks incomplete

try to re-install the driver ...
open a cmd and cd to the vmplayer install-directory
then run
vnetlib.exe --uninstall vmx86
vnetlib.exe --install vmx86

hope that helps

try again - last time the code was messed up by this horrible software :_| 

vnetlib.exe -- uninstall vmx86


reboot and check if the driver really was uninstalled by running
net start vmx86 - this should fail

vnetlib.exe -- install vmx86
