To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Player supports hardware virtualization." what does this mean? does it mean i need a different version of VMware? i hope someone on hear can help me

Hi, welcome to the forums :)
You may want to try VirtualBox to see if it'll handle OS X instead of VMWare
Here is some detailed infor on Mac OS X build

OSX runs horribly slow under virtualization. I just wanted to let you know before you spend lots of time to get it working only to find out it will take like 5 minutes to boot and perform terribly.
I've only done done a VM with 10.6. I've heard 10.4 wasn't that great in virtualisation, and 10.5 could be all right at times. And that's with a 9550 too and 6GB RAM.
Mac OS X on Virtualization Software runs extremely SLOW.
Where did you get your copy of OS X from?
What's your CPU? Your CPU may not support hardware virtualization.
i have also been trying to get OS X on VMWare.
I get the same error message as you, and the problem is CPU does not support virtulazation
I have intel core 2 duo and it doesnt
Your CPU doesn't support hardware virtualization,
Intel® Core
