  • 1.  Win 7 conversion BSOD PFN_SHARE_COUNT

    Posted Jan 08, 2020 07:42 PM

    I have a legacy app that I need to keep running for a bit but it’s running on a very old laptop so I did a test run with VMware coverter to and ESXI 6.7 box I spun up. I wasn’t able to get it to boot normally but I was able to get it to boot in safe mode. The OS is Windows 7 (I know). It’s a temp fix until we can move the app off or upgrade to 10 for this one PC

    Any idea what’s causing the error below? I saw some posts about display drivers but currently the only one installed is “vmware svga 3d”. Haven’t installed vmware tools yet.

    Here is a shot of the device mgr

    it could be the hardware compatibility version.

    I know this is an old post but I can boot it fine in safe mode.

    Hey,

    Try what it says in the next post:

    [SOLVED] BSOD on vm3dmp.sys after installing VMWare Tools 7 on Windows 7

    The solution is in the first post and I think it could work because even that you did not installed the VMware Tools yet, the Dump shows the same driver to be failing.
