VI client terminates when VM session is powered on or consoled into

I hope this post finds all the VMware folks well.

I am new here and new to configuring ESX 3.5

I have searched the net, RTFM, looked at the FAQs and searched the forums.

Perhaps someone can help with a slight issue.

After building my ESX 3.5 box I installed the VI client 2.5 build 64192. The VI client is loaded on a PC with Windows XP SP2 and industry standard specs for hardware. I attempted to build a VMware session Windows Server 2003 using a source CD in the ESX servers DVD ROM drive. The wizard completes fine and I am able to see the server instance in the console. But, anytime I try to console in or power on the VI client terminates and I have to log back in. I have reinstalled the VI client, rebooted the ESX box, rebooted my PC and looked at the logs on both the ESX/PC. But I am not finding much reference to a possible cause.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
