Installing multiple versions of vmware

[shakyasudeep]

Can two versions of vmware(7 and be installed side by side ?

I need both vmware 7 and 8 on my computer.

Hi, welcome to the forums

you can only run one version. The old version will be deinstalled when you install a new one.

Why would you need two version?

Previously, i was using vmware workstation 7.x in which i have mac os x lion . But now i am using vmware 8(because windows 8 doesn't work on vmware 7). So when i ran the mac os previously created using vmware 7 it starts and stucks which was running well on vmware 7. so thats the problem. I also tried reinstalling mac os on vmware 8 using bootable .vmdk file for mac os lion but didn't work but runs well of version 7. so thatwhy i may need two versions.

Thanks for quick reply .

Well,

I'm sorry but running Mac OS as guest is only supported on VMware ESXi and VMware Fusion and only when running on Apple hardware. Running it on non Apple hardware is a license violation and should not be discussed here.
