Hi,
I faced with the following issue. My VM has 2 HDD, one virtual and the 2nd is physical (mapped USB HDD via "Add Disk" wizard). When it comes to starting the VM, there's a weird "Dictionary problem" (Screenshot by Lightshot) message coming instead of started VM. If I delete the USB HDD, it starts w/o any errors. Here's some info about my configuration:
Host:
VMware Workstation 11.1.0 build-2496824
Windows 8.1, 64-bit (Build 9600) 6.3.9600 32GB RAM
Gust OS: Linux
This is the description file for that buggy HDD:

ddb.uuid = "60 00 C2 91 d6 22 db 03-3e 7c 1b b5 b9 da 6b d0"
ddb.virtualHWVersion = "11"
What I'm doing wrong and how can I fix the issue?
