Anyone on here any good with VMware? I've got a workstation pro licence (started on 16.1 now on 16.2.1)
I used to be able to run VMs side by side. Worked nicely for several months. Each VM set to 8GB Ram in a system with 32GB. Suddenly, for no reason I can figure out, the software self-terminates a running VM as soon as I try and open a 2nd one. Anyone got any idea what might be causing this?
The only thing I can recall doing differently was running a machine in Unity mode, which I never used to do. Turning that off hasn't resolved the issue.
Some people say it's Nvidia driver related but I've not changed the driver from day 1 of having VMware (still on 457.51 confirmed by the Nvidia control panel) and win10 is not set to update drivers.
I guess it's possible a win update has done something but I'm still on 2004 19041.1415 (waiting for my AV to expire before doing a new build) so I haven't crossed a milestone threshold for that to suddenly cause this.
Help, this is driving me mad. I really need to be able to have two VM side by side. That was the whole point in buying the pro licence.
The error then seems to persist and starts making even 1VM jittery/crash until I terminate a few of the VM processes in task manager and restart the VM software from cold. Talk about Fubar.
