Hello,
I have an old PC with Windows XP and I copied this into a VM (direct copy of USB hard disk) or converted via VMWareConverter.
When I start the VM, the resolution is at 1280x1024, even in safe mode. When I install the VMWareTools the resolution is only 640x480. If I uninstall the VMWareTools I can increase the resolution again.
On the Windows XP an VMWare server 2 runs. I can't uninstall it, it stops with an error message. A cleanup with the VMWare cleaner did not help.
Also, the resolution in the registry change brought nothing.
e.g. "Attach.RelativeX" or "DefaultSettings.XResolution"
I used VMWare Player 14.
For other Windows XP PCs, the conversion has always worked.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thank you in advance!
Holger
