Hey everyone

I have a Windows 7 Host and a Windows 95 Guest.
Now i want to install a Programm called CS3000 from Reliance, but when i try to start the Setup EXE it tells me this "IS20INST caused a General protection fault in module KRNL386.EXE at 0001:00000eba"

thank you
best regards

Tom

Hint: You write in an unofficial, independent and german-speaking forum. VMware employees do not read messages in other forums because there is an official forum. Have you already posted in the official VMTN?


Can you install other software or do you get this error only while trying to install this application?
Win95 is just a graphical user interface for MS-DOS. A virtual machine from VMware only passes the cpu, all other parts are mapped exclusively in software. Any further or direct hardware access is prevented by the VMware hypervisor.

Sadly the Forum is a big mess i can t even correctly Register myself, as soon as i wanna click on Register the hole site freezes and i can start from the beginning.
3 times if tried to Register myself now clearly wmware is not capable about handeling a normal Forum no wonder they have subforum's.

We have subforums too. This should be not the problem.

Perhaps we can find a solution. What are your OS and the used browser?
