VMware: ESXi 4.1 in Workstation Posted on September 2, 2010 by Rob van Hamersveld Today I wanted to record the installation of VMware vSphere ESXi 4.1 using VMware workstation. It turns out that ESXi 4.1 cannot run in VMware Workstation 7.0, after the upgrade to 7.1 everything works just fine. Installation video; [ad#postad]
