Tell me a little about your environment,
what kind of physical machine, what OS are you running, exactly what
vmware product are you running?
What kind of sound card do you have, and do you have more than one?

Ok, I have tried the TalkingArch iso (the current one) dated April 2015.
I used it on 2 different vmware systems and it works.
here are some suggestions:
1: when setting operating system, choose other linux kernel 3.x x86_64
2: make the memory at least 512M
3: make the hard disk at least 8 gb.
4 you must press ctrl-g to direct input to the machine.
5 it takes a bit to come up... press enter every now and then to see if
you hear the prompt.
If you still have problems, make sure your iso passes gpg signature
testing.
We sign the iso distribution with my gpg key and kyles gpg key.
You can verify with both or just one.
If you find that the computer Gods simply aren't on your side, post a
message and I'll give you my phone number and we can work on it.
I am even up to a remote jaws session if necessary.

I have VMWare workstation, so I will give it a try and see what the

might be.
I normally don't run arch in a VMWare host, but I do run other linux
distributions there sometimes.
I'll let you know what I find.

Hello Kelly,
Thanks for your reply. I'm using a Windows7 64 bit host. On that I'm
running VMware Workstation11. I am attempting to get the latest
talking Arch iso going, though I've tried back to the 2012 iso as I've
got the 2014 and 2013 isos, none talk, and they use to. They use to,
this all use to work. I'm assuming that when VMware went from their
es1371 audio to the hd audio emulated sound card that broke things.
I've tried on various hardware compatibility levels starting with
workstation11 and downgrading no luck.
I'd like to help fix this, let me know what else I can do.
Thanks.
Dave.
