    VMWare not working after Windows Update


    I am not able use VMware after after updating windows a few days. It shows the error "CPU has been disabled by the guest Operating System".

    I tried uninstalling and then installing the software, I have also ensured virtualisation is enabled in the BIOS and also followed the guide in the following link in a similar issue:

    Please help.

    :)
