3 beeps when starting Windows 8.1 Update 1 in VM Ware Workstation 10

I just got a new PC and went from VMware 8 to 10.  8 wouldn't run Windows 8 so this is the first chance I've had to load this.  The loading went fine and the OS works fine but every time I close the OS or restart, it always beeps 3 times as the VMware starting black screen is up.  It's one longer beep and then two quick beeps and then stops.  It never did that with any other OS's I had on VMware 8 and this is the first one I've tried on 10.  I haven't installed my imaged drive yet in the new PC so I can't try any of my old OS's yet.  Any ideas on how to stop this?  I saw things about editing some file online but didn't want to have to do this for every OS if needed.

Thanks.

Phil

Hello PhilBishop,

Welcome at the VMware communities forum.

Today VMware released a new version of VMware Workstation.

VMware Workstation 10.0.2 Release Notes

Download here:

Download VMware Workstation 10.0

I would first suggest to update to that version.

If that doesn't help let us know.
