Advice Needed: Mapping HFS+ Formatted Virtual Disk Using VMWare Workstation (under Win XP, MacDrive7 installed)

I have MacDrive7 installed in Windows XP. I have just created a HFS formatted virtual disk using VMware Workstation 6.5.1 under Windows XP. The problem came when I was trying to map the virtual disk using the Mapping feature in Workstation. I was able to map the virtual disk, but somehow I cant access the mapped virtual disk. Windows always ask if I want to continue to format the mapped disk (by the way, the disk was formated using HFS+... =.=).

 

Is it due to the MacDrive7 is not running? (however, I can see the MacDrive7 icon in my notification area)

 

Please advice. Thanks!!!

Doesn't work. I guess it is due to the way VMware maps the virtual drive. Currently do not know of any way of doing this.
