Install VISTA on VMWARE
main problems are network and sound, as driver is not automatically installed.
to fix network problem
1.Ensuer the network device type is vmxnet
2.Enable vmware tools in the menu. (the image file windows.iso should be under /usr/lib/vmware/isoimages/windows.iso). This should automatically mount the windows.iso as D: Drve
3.run the setup.exe from D: drive
4.If need manually update the drive. The location is D:\Program Files\VMWare tools\Drivers\vmxnet\win2k folder
To fix sound problem
Easy . After I add sound adapter in vmware console and logon to vista. I let it search on internet automatically . Done!
