vmware - unable to install .vmdk file in windows 7 -


i need install .vmdk file in order setup base environment specific application software. below steps performed still struggling.

  1. installed vmware player (non commercial version) in system , while trying open .vmdk file through vmware player, started complaining "no operating system found".

  2. as next steps, tried install vmware-mount-5.5.0-18463.exe belive free software.but everytime in middle of installation,it showing "the wizard interrupted before vmware diskmount utility installed. system has not been modified. click finish exit installation".

below system configuration: os: windows 7 ram: 4gb processor: i5-4200m cpu @ 2.50ghz dis space: 235 gb free.

this first time trying install vmimage. please let me know 1. there wrong in approach? 2. there alternative way can install vmdk software? 3. there specific reason due getting above errors?

in vmware world, vmdk image of virtual machine's hard drive. use vmdk, have create virtual machine, , add existing vmdk primary hard drive if want boot it.

it depends on vmdk bootable or not. if it's bootable, new virtual machine should fine. otherwise, face error message "no operating system found". it's vmdk not bootable image.

if want browse vmdk hard drive , see content, add vmdk secondary hard drive of existing virtual machine. way, you're booting first virtual machine's hard drive, not vmdk.
