VMWare Player and VMWare Server on same box

Darn it! I can't have my cake and eat it. Turns out that I can't install both VMWare server and VMWare Player on the same PC. BUT WHY would one want to dot that? The answer is simple. I was hoping to have access to the player so I could use my machines, and close them and restore them when I needed to. I don't leave my Desktop on all day every day. It would be handy to not have to save a snapshot of the guests I am using prior to shutting my machine down at the end of each day. Anyway - no hope. Too many conflicts and so trashed the player and am sticking with the server.

Intall the common one first because the other one depends on it. I have also attached a text file that gives information about the driver. I downloaded the source, met the dependencies and compiled it. I do
