The virtual machine could not start.

General: did you activate your copy of VMWare Workstation with a (trial) license key?

Operating System: if you installed WS under Linux, you also need to install 'make', 'gcc', 'kernel-source', 'kernel-headers'. Depending on the distribution the names might differ.

If you installed WS under Windows, then you might face some conflict. IMHO a Windows version of WS shouldn't confront you with power-on issues.

Do you have UAC(User Account Control) active on the workstation?

UAC is off

should be on or off

Did you try right clicking on the VMWare Workstation shortcut and click on the "Run as Administrator" option when you start VMW Workstation?
