Morning All,
Trying to set up a new VM and install Server 2012. Running vsphere in Windows 8.1 and keyboard and mouse won't work. I get the option to "press anykey to run CD" but no key presses are being picked up. Also have the same issue with VMware Workstation,
Anyone have any ideas? Seems to work fine on VMs we've already set up but only if VM tools is installed. Obviously not an option for a blank VM we're trying to install the O\S on!
69 views and no help! Have removed Windows Updates which I'm led to believe have caused this issue in the past but no luck.
Take a look here:
