mac os 10.6.2 windows 7 premium OA 64 bits fails

Hi

i am a bit lost,

i have a virtual machine all setup that works perfectly on XP and on my sony win 7 64 bits.

However when i run it on my new asus win 7 64 bits premium OA, it keeps failing with "operating system not found".

i just "copied" all the vm * files, as i did for the XP and sony, but this time its not working.

In the log it keeps saying that "darwin.so" cannot be found in the c:/program files .../vmware/ etc directory, BUT the vm settings stipulates that the iso is called "bootloader.iso" and the path is not at all the c:/program .../ ... / vmware.

i m totally lost, what could be the issue? where could i look at to depure this?

i forgot: the OS i am trying to virtualize is Mac 10.6.2 (snow leopard).

In fact in the log the "final error message" is "[http://msg.Backdoor.osNotFound|http://msg.Backdoor.osNotFound] No bootable device was detected. A bootable device might be a CD etc ... To install the OS install a cd or floppy and restart the VM.

damn this is the second pc i buy to emulate a mac and i still cannot. unlucky on this.
