Hi there,

I just installed VMWare 3.2 on my Dell laptop, over windows XP. It
works fine, but then, even when all virtual machines are off, the
vmware program accesses the disk about once a second, resulting in an
audible "clink" every second or so. This is quite annoying and may be
harmful to the poor hard drive. Has anyone else encountered the
problem? Anybody knows what to do?

Thanks,

Dror.
