I'm just doing a VMWare Workstation 8 installation. However, on trying to boot (or create) a VM, it's reporting "Could not get vmx86 driver version: The handle is invalid."
It recommends reinstalling, which I've done.
Also, VMWare Player just hangs.
Was going to post on the VMWare forums, but can't seem to create a new discussion (even though I've registered/logged in).
It's our own fault for being too eager to upgrade, I guess.

just run VMware workstation/player as administrator and you won't get this error.
