Depending upon the version of the VMware product you are running, PAE-enabled guest operating systems may not be supported.
If you are running VMware ESX Server, VMware GSX Server 2.0.1 or earlier or VMware Workstation 3.x or earlier, PAE-enabled guest operating systems are not supported, with one exception: NetWare 6 will work as a guest operating system when created with VMware GSX Server 2.0.1.
If you are running GSX Server 2.5 and are trying to start a Linux or NetWare 6 guest operating system, check the virtual machine's configuration file (.vmx on Windows hosts, .cfg on Linux hosts) and look for the following line:
paevm=false
If the line appears, change it to
paevm=true
If you are running GSX Server 2.5 and are trying to start any other PAE-enabled guest operating system, open the virtual machine's configuration file and add the following line anywhere within the file:
paevm=true
Save the configuration file and try starting the virtual machine again.
