Currently, there are incompatibilities between Microsoft .NET Framework and VMWare 64-bit guest operating systems when using some versions of VMWare.
Further information can be found on the VMWare article 1003945. This article explains the hardware and firmware requirements that needs to be met for installing virtual machines with 64-bit guest operating systems.
