Hashem Amireh Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I'm sure my PC is compatible with the copy of Mac OS X Snow Leopard since I installed it once on the same PC without VMware. My problem is after loading (darwin_snow.iso) I load the Mac OS X disc and press "c" and immediately press f8 and then type "-v" and enter. After that it starts loading but in the end it shows "Disabling the CPU..." and a window pops up saying: "The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. You will need to power off or reset the virtual machine at this point." PS. I used many guides but they all showed the same steps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maflynn Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Did you edit the vmx file changing/adding guestOS = "darwin10-64" (snow leopard x64) ich7m.present = "TRUE" smc.present = "FALSE" keyboard.vusb.enable = "TRUE" mouse.vusb.enable = "TRUE" That fixed the cpu error for me.

Well, I did what you told me and I got the following error "Mac OS X is not supported with software virtualization. To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports hardware virtualization." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
