The cpu has been disabled by the guest operating system

Hi to all,

I want to test a mac osx 10.6.6 virtual machine with vmware vorkstation 7.1 (windows 7 64bit).

When I start the machine I receive this error: "the cpu has been disabled by the guest operating system"

The cpu of the pc is an intel  core 2 quad q9550 2.83ghz with 8gm ram

Can I resolve the problem?

Thank for help

Simone

Sorry but it is a violation of Apple's EULA to run OSX as a virtual machine on non-Apple hardware.  We cannot assist you here, or VMware could face legal issues from Apple.
