I have XP Pro (32 bit) guest runing on a VMPlayer 5.0 virtual machine. The host is Vista 64 bit. I just installed it yesterday. Some 32-bbit software that has a 16-bit installer will not load into the virtual machine. It loads and runs ok using 32-bit XP Pro using MS Virtual PC on the same host. When I check the CD Rom drive in the virtual machine it says it is connected. I get an error message indicating that the installer is incompatible. Any ideas on how to fix? Based on what I have read it should load and run OK.
