Installing vmware tools 14.1.1 crashes xp virtual machines

Hi,

I installed today VMWare Workstation 14.1.1 update, then started an xp pro virtual machine. This vm worked fine before update.

VMWare proposed an update of vmware tools, I said OK (too late now). He installed all then asked for a reboot.

Now after reboot and starting all programs in startup group (display seems fine) I get a blue scree of death, with an error in vmx_fb.dll .

According to what I see on google it is related to video driver. Any hint??????

Thank you.

Have you tried uninstalling the VMtools and reinstalling?
