what hardware do you use for your server? have you tried to play with the vmware settings? e.g. memory size; vga memory size; acpi settings... and so on... there are lots of settings that can affect the behaviour of a virtual guest machine.

please notice to use code tags if you post output of code or logfiles!

thank you,
