Hello, we normally ask that bug reports be opened on our JIRA at
https://jira.reactos.org/

Some months ago I had an issue with VMware, where boot would fail if I
upgraded the VM to hardware version 11 or 12, and I had to set it to
hardware version 10 for it to work correctly. I thoguht that issue was
fixed a while ago, but it may be worth checking.
