Hi All,
I own Vmware 9 and am using the trial of VmWare 10. In vmware 10 when using hardware type of "vmware 10" you get an internal error when adding a physical drive or creating a vm that uses a physcial drive I get "internal error" and no logs that I can find are created. However if you create the vm as vmware level 9 or create the level 10 vm with a virtual disk then attach the disk, "internal error" does not occur. Once created you may attach a physical drive, or upgrade from hardware 9 to hardware 10 and use the virtual disk. If you remove the virutal dsik and try to re add it you will again get the "internal error" alert. Once you can use it, the physical drive performs well.
Any hints on how to fix this or places to check for logs that I may be missing?
