your allocated RAM for the virtual desktop may need to be set a little higher.
 If certain features like foreign keymaps, CD-ROM, USB stick, or printer redirection are not passing through to
the virtual desktop session, you may wish to check if your VM is at the correct version. You can download the
latest agent software executables at VMware's website at: http://www.vmware.com/downloads
