#VMWARE TOOLS FOR WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION 64 BIT#
I have VMware workstation (9.0) installed with the Windows 7 64 bit operating system which is my Office laptop (16 GB RAM, 500 GB hard disk, 2 TB External hard disk, 1 no of Intel NIC ). I will fess, until 30 minutes or so ago, I didn't know any better and I was always suspending the machine versus shutting it down. Just been playing with the modified version.

Fortunately I have both the original and a backup of the entire 98 vm directory and a full image of the old bum partition as well. I have tried, not fully knowing what I'm doing.admittedly, to modify the vmx file but I know I am not the best person to be doing this since I have only been researching the option of modifying the vmx file for the past hour or two now. Is there anyway I can get access back to the old vm. The VMware tab completely disappears down at the bottom of the screen. It basically appears to have shut down VMplayer when it goes to bring up Windows 98. I don't get any errors it just won't bring up the old vm. The trouble is I can't do anything with the old Windows 98 vm. Since then I have managed to get back several of the important files I'm hoping to be able to get off the old Linux partition before I reformat the whole hard drive and start over from scratch. I think I ran into corrupted files on the Linux partition. I could still get on the computer with Windows 7 though. I was totally locked out of the computer altogether. All of a sudden I couldn't get onto the computer using Linux. I had typically been using Linux all the time but I had a vm installed through Linux that I was using Windows 98 for a couple of features that are available in 98 that aren't available in current versions of Windoze.

I had both Windows 7 and Linux installed on the computer. Internet Connection: Via WLAN (Adapter Name: Qualcomm Atheros AR956x Wireless Network Adapter)īack in late October I ran into a problem on my computer. OS: Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit, Service Pack 1ĬPU: Intel Pentium N3540 Quad Core 2.16ghz

I hope you can help me, i want to try out how fast i could become a Virus without damaging my or other devices, only my VPC. I was reading about Host-Only networking but i got no Internet.Īny ideas how can i isolate my VPC that any virus can't infect any other Devices in LAN, but still have connection to the Internet? That's because if i got a virus that search for computers in Network to infect, and i don't want to take that risk. I don't want my VPC(Virtual Personal Computer) to get access to my main LAN network, but give him access to the Internet. I'm trying to study about Computer viruses so i want to take some security steps.
