How-to install VMware Workstation

Installation VMware Workstation and setting up a Virtual Machine.

Little video founded on YouTube for people wanting to test vMware workstation for the first time. Since this is a HD video so the quality is just fine. You'll be able to see how-to install and setup vMware Workstation on your computer and create a virtual machine running Windows 7 Operating system.

There is also a free online course from VMware, where you can learn not only the basics, but also more advanced stuff, like using one of the new features of VMware Workstation 7 – Autoprotect, or using the new virtual network editor….

There is a lot of new features introduced in VMware workstation:

  • Windows 7 support – of course the fancy 3D Aero graphics support with Flip 3D and Aero Peek to show live thumbnails of your virtual machines.
  • Run even more 3D applications with DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 and OpenGL 2.1 support in Windows virtual machines.
  • Test your knowledge on vSphere by installing ESX Server directly as a virtual machine inside of VMware Workstation 7 without any necessary tweeks of your VMX files.
  • See the new virtual network editor
  • Autoprotect feature (for automatic snapshots) are just great..
  • Automatic Update of VMware Tools –  The latest release of VMware tools is downloaded from VMware Website.
  • Support for new OS on the guest and on the host system.

Who should buy VMware Workstation?

VMware Workstation is essential for all technical professionals:

  • IT engineers/system administrators
  • Software developers and QA engineers
  • Call center/help desk/tech support engineers
  • Computer-based educators/trainers and their students
  • Salespeople and sales engineers who run software demos
  • Users who need to run Linux on Windows (or vice-versa)
  • Those who need to rehost a legacy application on a modern operating system (i.e, rehost Windows XP as a virtual machine on a Windows 7 host machine)

 

Here is the video:

 

Enjoy… -:)
