Re: Running a VMware Player Virtual Machine to run a Driver Station

You should make sure that you uninstall the driverstation from the host computer so that it doesn't cause IP conflicts if opened.

The driverstation has an option to modify your IP address automatically by default to change it to the 10.TE.AM.5 IP address required.

Doing this on the host and VM computer will cause conflicts.

Also I would recommend only using the VM Driver Station for testing purposes only, and not as your competition driver station. You should have a dedicated driver station propoerly configured to run natively on the hardware for competition and matches.
