VMware Workstation 9 With CentOS 6.3 Host Problems

Hi,

I have been running VMware Workstation 9 on CentOS 6.3 for about 30 days. I've noticed a few problems that are causing some headaches.

1) Experienced maybe 5 crashes in that amount of time. Very random and for no reason CentOS just reboots.

2) Every 30 minutes or so the VM locks up and I have to wait about 45 seconds for it to come back. Maybe more, I'm not sure. This is very consistent.

3) When using the VI Client inside a Win7 VM it within about 10 minutes of bringing up the client disconnesct ftom the ESXi server saying "The VI Clien has lost connection to the server".

This has all been frustrating and I'm considering changing my license over to the Windows License. Wondering though if anyone has experienced similar issues and if there's something that can be changed configuration wise to prevent these issues. I'm confident #3 has to do with the VM rather than the ESXi server.
