Alternatively, you can select "I will install the operating system later," although if you do this, your virtual machine will have very limited functionality because no operating system is installed.

Only one question remains in my mind: Are the VMware developers trying to make us buy some version of their software that supports network configuration, or is it just plain stupid design? Go figure.Open VMware Player and click "Create a New Virtual Machine." If you have a CD, DVD or disk image file containing an operating system, select the appropriate option.

And go figure – IT ACTUALLY WORKS WITH THE FREE PLAYER 🙂 Finally I copied the vmnetcfe.exe to the player installation folder and ran it.
