Aharon, I have had a few successful runs with vmware (why not switch to VirtualBox?) by using the vmware-any-any package available from here: http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/
http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/ftp/pub/vmware/vmware-any-any-update115.tar.gz appears to be the latest, but it doesn't work on all kernels, due to scheduler changes (I think that is the issue), so there is a 'rouge' fix for that as well. But start with this.
