Has anyone been able to, or at least tried, to get this working on VMWare Server? I know the instructions are for VMWare Player but it is the same platform just with different UX and method of running.
It installed but all I get is a slightly modified cursor that shows up.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I don't remember anyone has tried the Simulator on VMWare server. I know people have run it on VMWare Workstation and it works.
Any reason why you can not use the (non-commercial-free) VM Player?

It's only a trial, VMWare server is a unlimited free VM. I have multiple VMs and don't want to have to do a "full" uninstall every time in order to keep the trial working.
After the BlackBerry loading "bar", where a yellow highlight goes across the logo, how long does it take before the homescreen shows up? Maybe I'm just not waiting long enough.

Usually the initial startup takes longer, subsequent reboots are faster. Have you tried rebooting the VM?

Low and behold, it was my impatience. I let it run for about 5min, then rebooted and it popped up.
Edit: Found update is required. If I boot the VM up I will end up with a blank screen, but if I restart it then it works.
