Hello Everyone .
I've been facing some issues with VMware workstation 15/16 proo recently .
I used to use workstation to build some machines specially Cisco FMC/FTD for home lab. It has been working fine on my Acer aspire machine 16RAM/corei5 4 cores , however newer Cisco devices needs more resources, so now I have this Dell precision 5530 laptop.
The thing is that when I tried to boot an FMC on vmware workstation it just shows " boot 6.4.0 loading" and gets stuck there, it can run for hours with no errors or progress until you turn off the vm .
Same virtual machine in this case (FMC 6.4.0) intallation/booting goes fine on the other laptop (with less resources), after the "loading" I suppose to see "" BIOS DATA CHECK SUCCESFUL" but it seems this is not getting done .
I have collected somo logs created within virtual machines folders . I started running same ovf file on both computers and settings are exactly the same , so I have 2 files one on working machine and other on non working machine,but cannot find a solution.
I attach the logs on both machines and screenshoot of the VM behavior . Any assistance will be greatly appreciated
