Hi, thanks for replying.. Host OS is Windows XP Home SP2 Guest OS is rhLinux(the one I am trying to open with VMware Player) There is a whole chunk of data in the log file that I am not sure what its describing. But I am assuming the last few lines will be where the errors are logged. So here goes: Feb 28 16:55:46: vcpu-0| FLOPPYLIB-LIB : Win32Ioctl: syserror The device is not ready. Feb 28 16:55:46: vcpu-0| FLOPPYLIB-LIB : Win32Ioctl: syserror The device is not ready. Feb 28 16:55:46: mks| Ignoring update request in VGA_Expose (mode change pending).
