Hi ALL:
Lately I've been trying Virtual machine ware and ran into a problem that
seems to be related to my install of the VMWare Virtual Machine Player. ON
day 1 of this event I un-installed Virtual Box and VirtualPC 2007 and then
installed VMWare Player. The download for a VMware machine was going slow so
I left that to another time.
On day 2, I installed Virtual PC 2007 and installed Ubuntu Linux on it.
Then I installed Virtual Box and installed Ubuntu Linux on it. Late on day
two I discovered that My Vista system would not wakeup from sleep mode. The
system appeared to enter sleep mode properly but would just die when a key
was pressed to awaken it and the system needed to be re-booted.
I de-installed the virtual machine software one at a time, the system would
not recover from sleep mode after each install. I did a system restore to
before the most recent VPC installs stepping backwards, no help. I did a
system restore to before VMWare was installed and that resolved the issue.
It appears that VMWare interfers with my Vista system's ability to recover
from sleep mode.
Hope this helps someone else!
George
