Not sure if i'm posting in the proper place. I have 3 esxi 5.1 servers in a cluster. I have 2 terminal server Windows 2003 x86 guests that are causing me fits. The vmtools quit spontaneously and I get the above error, (I have attached a .jpg of the error). In order to get the tools to restart, I have to stop and restart the print spooler, then restart the vmtools and they will run fine for a period of 2-5 hours and then stop again. I have googled this till i'm blue in the face and have found nothing. Some more background...esxi 5.1 servers are brand new, all my guest server OS's were previously running on an esx 4.1 cluster. I have many terminal servers running different versions, I never had any problems with any of my 2008 R2 servers doing this, but had issues with 3 other 2003 x64 servers and the way I fixed them was removing some different HP universal print drivers. I have removed these drivers from these 2 servers that are still causing me problems. I don't get any other errors, the tools stop and the OS starts behaving sluggishly which is unacceptable in my environment. Please HELP !!
