I have vmware player v6 on a windows machine
I've installed windows 7 as a virtual machine on a windows machine however I cannot get vmware tools to install - because the install process won't start.
In the vmware window I click Player/Manage/Install VMware tools and nothing happens, ever. I don't get any installer start up. So I also tried start/run/D:\setup and I get 'please insert a disk into the dvd drive'. This is so useless, nothing I do will get the installer to start and after trawling google for ages every page says the same thing, which is what I've already tried and which never works. wtf do |I have to do to get the vmware tools installer to run?
edit: I also tried downloading and running tools-windows-9.6.1.exe and that did sweet FA as well.
