hye there..
why i can't install VMware-player-3.0.1-227600 on my laptop?
here the image link http://i852.photobucket.com/albums/ab86/ijalij0l/untitled2.jpg
is there any solution for this?
Currently i use:-
XP Professional 32bit SP3
Ram 2GB
HD 250GB
And my laptop is Acer Aspire 4520
Before this, I never install VMware software on my laptop ...
VMware Player v3.1 is now out. You can download it from:
http://downloads.vmware.com/d/details/player_310/ZGp0YmQqQHdiZHR3ZQ==
I would start with that since it could fix the problem and you get new functionality! Please let us know if that resolves your issue.
i have try the new version,
but the result is still same.
Can you post the installation log?
Can you temporarily disable your virus / IDS software for the installation and try again?
I got this same error today, "Error UI timed out". Using XP SP3 32bit fresh install, all firewalls disabled and no AV. All three versions do the same thing. 3.1, 3.01, 3.0.
where should i get this installation log?
tell me.
I have had this problem today and thought I would share my resolution.
It appears that the Vmware player install uses java to display the installation UI. It references the internet explorer security settings for operation of java script. In the case of my machine, I am running Windows XP SP , but recently had to run a repair on windows. This rolled back IE to IE7 and it wouldn't launch on my PC (not noticed for a while because I use firefox)
To fix the vmware player install issue, I removed IE, reinstalled with IE 8, reset security permissions for running javascript in the IE security settings and then reran the install file and it installed just fine.
Hi!
I have resolved disabling Avast Antivirus !!

Mr. Rodgers:
You found the true solution regardless of all the requests for .log info.
Solution that works for ANY VMWare installer :
1. start a DOS box ( by typing "cmd" in the Start button text field for example )
2. make a temp directory, for example, c:/temp
3. change directory to where you've downloaded VMWare Installer
4. extract the .msi installer from the .exe by running the following command in DOS
cmd /C <your VMWare Installer name>.exe -e c:/temp
5. when the command returns, you should see a "VMware Workstation.msi" and *.cab in c:/temp
6. Run VMware Workstation.msi by double clicking on it in Windows Explorer, or use msiexec
Done

This worked perfectly. As soon as I upgraded IE to IE8, VMware 9 Install worked perfectly.
