Is anyone able to get VMware Workstation to work on Windows 7? I can't, pressing the start button does nothing except grey out the button.
I tried 14, 15 and 15.5 which is the last one to work on Windows 7 but none of them do.

Yeah, I have been using that for the longest time and it works but I heard VMware is faster so I wanted to see for myself.
VMware Player works but it only lets me use 2 cores.
