vm ware server installer 1.0.5 says it supports 64bit systems, and yet it doesn't like vista's obsession with 'digitally signed drivers' any way around this chaps? cheers!
Btw, open Task Manager and set the VMWare process that's using all the CPU to Low priority. It'll make using Windows when folding a far better experience.
It can take a few minutes for VMWare to become usable after booting Windows. I won't pretend to know the reasons, but it's probably due to some of its processes or services being pre-set to a delayed start.
It can affect the rest of the computer too. I find that I can't access the net for a good 2 minutes after booting into Vista when i have VMWare Server installed. It is a PITA at the time, but I seldom reboot my machine anyway when I'm folding on it.

How much memory have you allocated to the Ubuntu VM? And how much to the Host?
