I'm using Wks ver 10.0.1 and latest version of Tools. I upgraded the Win 8 guest to 8.1 and since then, after the Win8 login, I get nothing but black screen. I've tried the following with no success:
- I've changed the Display settings to uncheck Accelerate 3d Graphics, also to Specify monitor settins (max 1 monitor, lowered resolution below monitor capability of 1920x1080)
- I'm unable to use any of the standard keyboard shortcuts (such as F8 to get a Windows boot menu so I can attempt safe mode). There's no keyboard response at all until the Win8 login screen appears
- I did notice that under Enhanced virtual keyboard, there's a message 'VMware keyboard driver is not installed on the host'. Would installing that make any difference here?
