Can't start a VM - /dev/vmmon error - RHEL 6.2

Guys,

Using RHEL 6.2 and VMWare Workstation 7.1.5 on a Dell Optiplex 790.  Just created a fresh RHEL 6.2 image and installed VMware.  However, when I try to launch any VM I receive the error:

 

  • Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory. Please make sure that the kernel module "vmmon" is loaded.

  • Failed to initialize monitor device.

 

I have uninstalled/reinstalled VMware and receive the same error.  I have stopped/started the /etc/init.d/vmware service.

sudo modprobe vmmon   did nothing.

 

Any other workarounds?

 

TIA!
