I recently downloaded Workstation 7.1 as a trial in an effort to see if I wanted to purchase it. I saved the .exe file in my download folder on OS Win 7 64 bit. When I attempt to do a wizard install the installation starts copying files and and hangs with error code 1935. See next post for the error msg.

Ok here is the message I was trying to put into the first post::
*The MSI ‘C:\Users\Ken\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware_1277331408\vmwareworkstation.msi’* failed. Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of *assembly component {9DA4DC8A-9731-3FOE-8BD5-FC17CA6848AD}. HRESULT: 0x80070005*
Now after some exhaustive research on the internet I was able to
determine there have been similar issues. I did a HOTKey fix as
suggested by one blogger and I was told this was a permissions issue so I
gave everything full access.
I still cannot get this software to install on my WIN 7 64 bit system. I
called VMware who told me if I didn't pay for the software they didn't
support it but I could seek help in this community. NICE! wonder how they
expect me to puchase something I can't even try to see if it's worth me
spending the money.
I have been at this for a week and suppose my trial which I started two
weeks ago will end before I ever get to try the software out.
In any case if anyone has any suggestions I'd certainly appreciate as
assistance you can provide.
Thanks
Hi jkrusel,
Could you please check forum post http://communities.vmware.com/message/1559785#1559785, look for wila's reply.
I have got the same error number as at the start of the thread, with the same problem of having to pay for support so I can try the product.
"Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {9DA4DC8A-9731-3F0E-8BD5-FC17CA6848AD}. HRESULT: 0x800736FD. "
I followed the extract instructions above and ran " vmware workstation.msi", I then got a different error "error 25011. unable to configure the host agent service" , I got this error twice, it then seemed to continue for a while before giving me the same original error as above. I think that when it continued it was installing the eclipse debug stuff.
The down load file is " VMware-workstation-full-7.1.0-261024.exe"
Windows 7 ultimate
64 bit
intel(R) core(TM) i7 930
6GB ram
GA-X58A-UD3R mother board ( Virtualization is enabled)
All MS patches applied
Any assistance would be appreciated

I found another post on these boards which suggested disabling the Microsoft .NET Framework services in services.msc to fix this "error 1935" problem. After getting the error, I tried this and it worked for me on Windows 7 64bit. I figured I'd post the fix here for others to find.
