Can someone help me with what I can and can't do with vmware and my current pc setup in order to get some virtual hands on practice (studying for MCSA). My PC setup is 3ghz P4, 1GBRAM, 100GB of free space, 7800GT. VMWare Workstation 6, VMWare ESX Server, VMware-server 1.0.2-39867. Windows XP Pro SP2 Windows server 2003, and Windows 2000. Is there anything else that I need?
1 GB of memory is pretty low, especially if you are going to be running multiple VMs on the same box concurrently. The more memory you have the better for VMWare, so for improved performance I would double that if not more. Remember you still have to have memory for your host OS too.
