HI All, I am in need of a little help....
I am very new to virtualization and am not a computer whiz either. I downloaded VM Player 4.0.2 build-591240 after I had tried running XP mode on my Windows 7 Ultimate machine with Windows VPC only to find it to be incredibly slow and impossible to do what I needed to.
So after downloading I installed Player and then tried to import XP Mode via the File menu. I was prompted that Converter standalone was needed and should be downloaded. However it said it could not download the file (I was online so I cannot imagine the reason for this) Anyway I then manually downloaded version 5 from the website and installed it.
I opened Player again and now I get the message when trying to import XP Mode: "The "VMware vCenter Converter Standalone" product is not configured properly for use with VMware Player. Uninstall VMware vCenter Converter Standalone and try again." So I uninstalled it and installed it again. No difference.
Perhaps I am being stupid but I cannot see any info on how to configure Converter for Player.
