Error: The Virtualization capability of your processor is already in use????

The virtualization capability of your processor is already in use. Disable any other running hypervisors before running VMware Workstation."

then: "Failed to initialize monitor device."

then: "Unable to change virtual machine power state: Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to."

With Workstation 1 and 2 , I was getting someting like: "RunVM failed, operation not permitted", and: "Unable to change virtual machine power state: Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to."



Dont worry

Solution :-

PS: Someone not daring to uninstall kvm might try to run VMware Server after removing the kvm modules from the kernel runtime:

[root@testdb ~]# lsmod | grep kvm
kvm_intel              85256  0
kvm                   225824  2 ksm,kvm_intel
[root@testdb ~]# modprobe -rv kvm_intel
rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.18-308.el5/extra/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko

[root@testdb ~]# rmmod kvm


Then retry and Enjoy !!!!!!
