I have just installed VMWare Workstation 8 over my old VMWare Workstation 6.5 on Windows 7.
On my first run I already got the error message:
Could not get vmx86 driver version: The handle is invalid.
You have an incorrect version of driver "vmx86.sys". Try reinstalling VMware Workstation.
Failed to initialize monitor device.
Obviously, I was concerned, but there is a simple way to solve it - just right-click the VMWare Workstation icon and use Run as Administrator.
This is a bit annoying, but at least it is easy to solve.
Update: I forgot to mention it, but as Dave said on the comments, you can right-click on the program shortcut, choose Properties, Compatibility tab and check Run as Administrator so that it will always run properly. Thanks, Dave!
