timofcourse Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I was able to get Mac OS X 10.6 running in VMware Workstation 8.0.1 on Win 7 x64 working without much issue with one main exception. Whenever I log out and presented with the Login screen the graphics seem to glitch out. See the attached for what happens. If I change view modes (e.g. between full screen and console mode), I can see the Login screen and even interact with it, but only for about 1-2 seconds. Once I log in everything seems to work as it should. I need to have access to the login screen to log in with different accounts, so Im hoping someone has an idea on how to resolve this. If there's any more info I can provide, please let me know. Thanks!!

timofcourse Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 This seems to be only occur when Autofit Guest is selected or if I choose to "Fit Guest Now". So long as I leave Autosize set to Center Guest, this problem doesnt seem to occur.

_lunchbox_ Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I have the exact same problem, except with Lion, not SL. I, like you, have tried different screen fit settings with the same results. it seems to work ok after login. I am semi-new to OSX and running it in vmware, so I don't have anything to try at this point Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/275357-graphics-issue-at-mac-login-screen-with-vmware-workstation/#findComment-1798789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
_lunchbox_ Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 What version of vmware tools are you using? I made sure I was using 401 or 500 and the issue seems to have gone away Although not, it seems that my input is sometimes ignored on these VMs Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/275357-graphics-issue-at-mac-login-screen-with-vmware-workstation/#findComment-1798977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
