I'm trying to install Windows 2008 R2 on VMWare, and I got this error:
A required CD/DVD drive device driver
is missing. If you have a driver
floppy disk, CD, DVD or usb flash
drive, please insert it now.
I was trying to install it from ISO, daemon and from DVD drive, but always get this error.

Your ISO image is corrupt.
Check with MSDN to make sure the SHA1 hash of your file is the same as what you have on your computer. It took me 3 tries to download one with the same hash as what shows on the MSDN site. In fact, the first one I burned to a DVD and installed on a physical machine so I thought it had to be good.
I used fciv to verify my SHA1 in windows.
