Hello. I need your help
Installing vmware ESXI
We have two mini-computers from DELL
So far, we've worked on a total of 5 songs
It's working fine.
During the two tasks, computer A is installed with a pink screen and computer B is installed with Windows 10, so it works fine, but if you put in a VMWARE BOOT USB and boot it as the first priority, a green line comes out
Please help me.😢

Hi, Thanks ask us about your situation. I would like to know these things to support you.

  • What hardware model do you use? 
  • Did you run the ESXi as normally on your hardwares? or always happen these situation?
    If you can boot the ESXi, DCUI (this screen) will be displayed.

  • If you use USB device as boot device, many cases it is a root cause for this case.
    • If you have other stoarge device to install ESXi, I recommend you use it.

Thanks Regards

I've done a lot of work with the same mini PC, and this symptom comes out (pink screen, green line as in the picture above)
The version is ESXI 6.7.0
We've all used the same boot USB when we've been working on it'

I need your help
Could you tell me the meaning of the green belt and error code?😭

The pink screen you said is "Purple Screen of Diagnostics", is official name.

It is a major symptoms for vSphere. 

But I have never seen the green bar as VMware related error. I guess it may be hardware related error or something. 

Do you mean, you have other same PC with ESXi and it works, but a part of same model PC has this PSOD/green bar error?

If the green bar is a hardware error, what can I do?
1.BIOS Update
2. Main body A/S
Which one should I try?

And
Does this mean that you have the same PC that uses ESXi, but it works, but some of the same model PCs are experiencing PSOD/green bar errors?
That's the question
It means that there will be a new error as I asked you in the same model PC
