Did that. Now even when the install is successful. Pointer isn't displayed in VM.
My pc spec:
i5 3330 3.3 GHZ
Nvidia gt 740 2GB oc
8 gb ram..


The emulation of vm is buggy. as in screen turns black on certain areas. like play store search box

Try Right-CTRL I to get the cursor showing.

this doesn't work. VMware 11 says, that 3d acceleration is not supported for this OS, and after booting you have a black screen only (with or without 3d).

On VMware 10, android boots successfully, but still with "black screen" issues.

So, the problem is in gpu driver.

I tried VMware Workstation 12 and am stuck at the Intro screen since the cursor does not show up/work. I checked the VMX file and enable3d is set to true, so I'm not too sure how accurate the GUI is. I've uploaded an OVF at https://mega.nz/#!1cAUUbhI!7FaGtLCELrEhF1NkFr7LFKttrY4ijKRsysij1TRskrU if someone wants to give it a go.
