First you need to state which VMware product you are using to try and “play” the VM.

You should also mention the host OS, whether this has happened before, if it happens to other VMs or just the one you mention, and anything else you have tried to troubleshoot.

Hi

change the CPU configuration of your VM as below:

Edit setting > expand cpu options > Virtualized cpu performance counter
