I've downloaded VMWare earlier today so that i could try dual-booting. Running a 64-Bit version of windows 7 on a laptop. Don' think model of my computer will matter, so i'm not going to bother. I've tried running it on Other Linux 2.6.x kernel both the regular and 64-bit version. Same for Ubuntu. I have an ISO version of backtrack it's on my desktop. Here's its name: "BT5-GNOME-64". Here are my settings that i've put in while setting up a new 'VM':
The max size i've set on 20.0GB, & I'm keeping this as one big file. Not sure if running dual processors, so i'm keeping it at 1. New CD/DVD i've set to the ISO image file. Network adapter's at NAT, & everything else is the same.
These are my settings thus far as an image:

when i try to power it up, i get the vmware screen, followed by the copyright screen, where you hit enter to boot. I've tried all the options that pop up on the screen that comes up afterwards, and waited for it to auto-boot as well. none of them load, but most show me the image below.
Here's the screen that pops up. It's been like that for a good 1/2 hour already.
Attachment 796 Screen says "Loading._"
thanks for any tips, hints, anything.
