Hi, I am running VMware workstation 7.1.3 on Windows 7 x64.
When I have one or several VMs of Windows XP 32bit booted up in workstation, and when I try to perform any operation such as pause, suspend, shutdown, open all background VMs nothign happens to any of the VMs open in workstation or the ones in the background.
Additionally this leaves me with the problem that I cannot bring any VMs that are in the background back into the foreground. I have to log into them via RDP or VNC and shut them down and reboot them in workstation to get them back in there again.
When I try to bring back one from the background to the foreground, workstation opens, but just sits there with no powered-on machines in it's list. Also, when workstation is launched this way I can no longer close it (the X does nothing and neither does right-click close.) Though the rest of the application responds just fine (i can go to options, minimize and maximize it and boot up other VMs).
When I do try to bring a VM back from background, I seem to get this error printed into the logs:
Dec 10 15:40:24.861: vmx| CnxHandleConnection: WSASocket returned error 10022.
Dec 10 15:40:24.861: vmx| VMAutomation: Cnx_CompleteAsyncOperation() failed.
Anyone have any ideas what is happening here?
It looks like this is my problem:

(page 3 they talk about the problem with workstation 7)
But they never came up with a resolution.
