Windows 7 x64 vclient 2.x & 4?

Hello,

Does anyone know how to get the vmware client 3.1.0 (reads as 2.5 in the help info) & the 4.x client installed on the same Windows 7 machine?  I found an article on the vmware site, but it doesn't work.

This is the article that I tried to follow, but once the launcher dir gets moved and put back, the .exe fails to launch.

Hi ,

why you want the VI client 3 ?? you have the VI client 4.x for all purposes , you can use to connect to ESX3.5 host and in the same time to later versions of ESX ( 4.x )

if this is your purpose , you don't need to install VI client 3.x

Every time I got to a host, I am prompted to run or save the installer, so when I get to the 4.1 client and install that, the console view on the other hosts doesn't work anymore.  It seems like it was a bug or at least known issue for Windows 7 X64, but the fix in this article doesn't work.
