Hi All
I have problem with installation Windows 8 x64 in VM. Three monitors, 3x1920x1200 = 1x5760x1200 (Eyefinity). Windows 7 x64 no problem. Windows 8 x64 - after installing VMWare tools (=VMWare SVGA) driver - black screen:-(.
I read many forums, this is common problem, solve thousands of people (VMWare Workstation have bad driver for Windows 8 - i do not understand - VMWare not support/test Windows 8?). Solution is remove this SVGA driver from VMWare. Ok, no problem, i remove this driver, yes now is screen correct BUT not for all monitors. Max is possible (=1920x1200). I test change VMX (add video memmory), change type of view (autofit, stretch,...) etc. Nothing works:-(.
Does anyone know a solution?
Exist correct unofficial video driver?
thanks for info
BJ
p.s. ...host:
OS: Windows 7 x64 Ultimate

...no solution:-( ...VMWare now not tested Windows 8? ...maybe time to go to another virtualization:-(
