Enable “Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI” and “Virtualize CPU performance counters” Open VM settings and select “Processors”. Once the VM is created we need to enable virtualization engine in the VM settings.Wait for VMWare to create the virtual disk.Check VM settings and then click Finish.The default vmdk location is the VM folder location Select “Allocate all disk space now” and “Store virtual disk as a single file” For disk capacity, set disk size to 40GB.This option lets you connect to the network directly. Select “Use bridged networking” as your network connection.

You can set the memory at least 2GB but if you encounter looping issues when starting the VM try to set it higher I set these before to 2 processors and 2 cores and I was getting loop issues when I ran the VM.

Set number of processors to 1 and number of cores per processor to 8.

It is optimal to use an SSD as your VM location for best performance The MacOS Unlocker patch enabled the Mac OS X support of VMWare Workstation.

Select “I will install the operating system later”.

Run VMWare Workstation and create a new virtual machine.
