I think the other H/W are not important for VMware because it always simulate them as generic devices
Host OS is Windows XP SP3 w/ last patches (11.1.2009)
as the MD5 for the ISO image of 'iATKOS v7 DVD 10.5.7.for Intel.AMD' I got is 6395be5253f53f716ed042db1dd599f3
don't need to burn it to a phsical DVD
