Hi,
After updating to VMWare 15.5 and then updating VMWare tools - my machines no longer boot correctly - they boot to a black screen.
I'm greeted with the error:
The virtual machine could not be changed to the selected monitor layout.
If you just added a monitor to the host computer, you must power off and power on the virtual machine to use that monitor.
I have changed the VMX file so that it's set as:
svga.maxHeight = "1080"
svga.maxWidth = "1920"
svga.autodetect = "FALSE"
svga.vramSize = "134217728"
But still no joy.
I have tried restoring the machine, then uninstalling VMWare tools, uninstalling the video driver, and then re-installing VMWare tools and have the problem regardless.
The only workaround at this stage that I have found is to turn off Accelerate 3D graphics.
Is there a known bug at the moment with Windows 1903, and VMWare 15.5 with 3D acceleration?
Thanks
Adam.
