title: vmware player install hangs? vista 32bit
body: <p>Hi
  I am a noob trying to setup my computer so i can make a social networking website.
  Sorry if its not kosher to ask here, but Hopefully one of you smart guys can help me. </p>
  
  <p>I want to test some CMS (content management systems), firstly Elgg and then some others.
  As far as ive read i can do this by using a virtual machine like VMware Player.</p>
  
  <p>Now originally i wanted to try out Insoshi so i tried to use Cygwin and <a href="https://github.com/insoshi/insoshi" rel="nofollow">GitBash</a> (also Putty tools) to download it (with no success). This involved me installing those programs and also trying to get an ssh environment variable working. So i gaveup on that (seeing that Elgg has more support anyhow i thought id try to try that). I uninstalled these programs, deleted leftover directories and deleted the added environment variable. </p>
  
  <p>I also uninstalled DaemonTools (cos i thought it may be conflicting).
  Im running Windows Vista 32bit and have always downloaded relevant installs for that system.</p>
  
  <p>My problem is the VMware Player installer isn't doing anything. I launch it and it seems to hang straight away <a href="http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/6077/askfe.jpg" rel="nofollow">see pic</a></p>
  
  <p>Am i missing something here?
  Vmware page also suggests a virtual appliance (for cloud stuff) which i dont know much about yet. And i think that appliance is installed via the player else an image loader like Daemon Tools. Do i need this appliance first?
  Why is the player not installing?
  Ive tried both 3.14 and 3.13 build with same result?
  I have about 4 gig of space left on my hd and have 3gig of ram.
  I have looked at the programs installed on my computer and cant seem to find anything else that might conflict (but i am a n00b) and i also tried pausing my kapersky pure protection. Any help is severely appreciated, thanks.</p>
