VMWare Workstation Virtualization Problem

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to virtualize my Windows XP (sp3) laptop but I'm having a real difficult time.

When I try to virtualize it, it begins but fails almost immediately and has the following message:

The virtualization of "xxxxxx" failed. An unexpected error occurred.

...

...

After digging through the log files I found the cause.  Here is what the log files says:

Connecting to Windows XP Professional on 192.168.1.111 as Administrator

SMB manager: Error connecting to share [\\192.168.1.111\Windows XP Professional]: 1130

Failed to connect to Windows XP Professional on 192.168.1.111. Reason: Unspecified error in remote execution mechanism

File share connection failed - Could be due to an invalid network path

CreateVM: Vm creation failed with fault converter.fault.NetworkShareConnectFault

When I did a quick ipconfig I found that it showed the following:

Ethernet adapter VMware Network Adapter VMnet8:

         Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

Can someone tell mw why I keep getting this error message and why I can't virtualize my laptop?  Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

Thanks!!
