Ok I was first going to say I could not replicate this.. but then saw that the host OS is Windows XP which I do not have access to. However, vmware workstation only supports the 2.6 kernel on Workstation 5.0 and above. Early 2.6 kernels are known to work on Workstation-4.5 on some hardware but a lot of systems had the problems you are listing when trying to run Workstation-4.x with CentOS-4.

Thanks Stephen and everyone else. I had not run into issues with VMWare 4.5 and the 2.6 kernel under CentOS 4, but you convinced me to try an upgrade of VMWare and it's working like a champ!

Thanks again, Kennedy
