vmware.exe - No Disk

I was trying to run vmware last nigh, and started receiving an error message, trying to open vmware, the moment I tried to opened, it a received the error.

com.pivotmobile.android.metrics file on my Android phone

Adding sound to VMWare Lion 1.7.3 computer

As my research on running Lion on a PC, one of the problems I found was installing audio. The process looked rather simple, install the following driver: EnsoniqAudioPCI_v1.0.3_Lion.pkg No big science there, the speaker audio appeared, itunes ran without a problem, but still no sound. My solution, really studid really: Go to System Preferences Select Sound, then Output Chose Line Out, The problem was solved and it works OK, not great but OK.
