what is the VMWare Tools Version you are trying to install?

VMWare has no released VMWare Tools v10:

VMware Tools 10.0.0 Released - VMware Blogs

maybe this could resolve your problem

i would recommend to try the update with an v10 version...

i would also activate debugging on the vmware tools: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=100787...

this could help identify your problem...
