Hi,
I receive the following error when trying run
Windows 7 (64bit) VMWare Workstation VMware® Workstation 16 Pro
16.1.0 build-17198959
VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (svga)
Unexpected signal: 4.
A log file is available in "/home/aaron/vmware/Windows 7 x64/vmware.log".
You can request support.
The Host operating system I was running is Ubuntu 18.04
I haven't registered the VMWare bundle yet as I am trialing it out
Thanks,
Aaron
I think I am experiencing the problem mentioned here:
Will try downgrading VMWare and see 8f that solves the problem.
I am still getting the problem running version 15 as well. I have attached the log file from version 15. Does anyone know if version 12 is still available to download? From memory that is the last version I used and it worked for me. However, I think I have changed desktop machines since then (years ago).
Edit:
My host specs are:
Processor: AMD® Phenom(tm) ii x4 965 processor × 4
Graphics: NV117
OSType: 64bit
Ok! So version 15 is also giving me the same error with the following system specs:

How can I find out which version of VMWare Player/Workstation will running on my pc? |
Thanks,
Aaron
Solved the problem by installing VMWare Player version 14:
VMware-Player-14.1.7-12989993.x86_64.bundle
