VMWare server help!
« on: October 22, 2007, 07:05:05 pm »
I'm new to VMWare and I wanted to try and install Win 2K Pro today. I got the image from my teacher at school and burned it to a CD at home. After it's loaded all the setup files, I press C to continue to install and then it gives me an ugly error:

STOP 0x0000001E



I found this article about it here at Microsoft but it doesn't seem to be very helpful: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811014/en-us


Help? lol

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I don't need more than 2GB of hard disk space for Win 2K, right? That's what I have it set to... I'll try changing it though.

Nope... didn't work. Changed it from 2 to 5 and made an entire new hard drive. Same old blue screen.

# for hex 0xc0000006 / decimal -1073741818
  STATUS_IN_PAGE_ERROR                                           ntstatus.h
# The instruction at 0x%08lx referenced memory at 0x%08lx.
# The required data was not placed into memory because of an
# I/O error status of 0x%08lx.

STATUS_IN_PAGE_ERROR typically means that something couldn't be page faulted in.  If it were a real box, I'd say you have a dead or dying hard drive.

But during OS install of a VM, my guess is you used an SCSI disk in the VM and didn't install the updated VMware SCSI drivers (see the VMware documentation).  Either give it an IDE disk or use the floppy image VMware provides with the proper SCSI drivers.

Thanks for your reply Skywing. I found out the CD which I had burned the WIN 2000 iso to was garbage. So I used Daemon Tools instead. :)
