VMware Workstation Pro 14.1.1 - host crashes on virtual machine launch

[dennishr]

Upgraded to Workstation Pro 14.

Have 3 virtual machines.

The moment i start any of my virtual machines, host (Windows Ultimate 7 SP1) crashes and reboots.

Previous version of Workstation Pro 12.5.9 works fine

Any suggestions?

... my solution posted with pictures in Lenovo W530 thread. Still, try to change buffer overflow execution prevention or something similar in memory protection module.
