Dolphin under VMWare - GPFaults...

Hiya - has anyone here run Dolphin XP 5 under VMWare at all?

I just installed it in a virtual machine to try and track down a problem
with a certain config and I keep getting GPFaults all over the place and
have to ctrl-alt-delete the bugger :(

Mark,

I'm using DXP Pro 5 in a VMWare instance on a daily basis (Gust OS is XP
SP2 and Host OS is Linux (Debian 3.0 with kernel 2.6)). No problems here.

Did you just copy the installation or reinstalled under VMWare? Which
user did/do you use?

Yes, we run it under VMware all the time for testing Windows versions
other than XP. That said, we only use Win98/Win2K/WinNT; we've never
run it in a VMWare XP machine.

It seems to be going fine now, I reinstalled DXP on the machine and
copied my image;/changs/src files over.  It seemed to happen when I
called an activeX method that didn't exist, Dolphin seemed to get in a
tiz.  But since then, I've not been able to reproduce it on demand :(  (
always the annoying way ).
