How exactly your VM is configured is additional information. A screenshot of the "Virtual Machine Settings" dialog would be one way, a copy of the .vmx file even better.
A debug log is also additional information.

Possibly just upload the .vmx to Google Drive (Allow to download if the person uses the link!) or Dropbox as ThFabba wants to possibly do the debug log him/herself.

Uh, no, I'm working on about a hundred bugs already. So it's much more likely for me (or any other dev) to want to help if I can look at the backtrace in an existing debug log and see whether this is code that I'm familiar with and might have an easy fix for.

like I said I followed a video on youtube and that problem happened only on the first installation (it kept happening several times after the first installation then I reinstalled the system formatting the old version and the problem was gone, because of that I can't send you the .vmx) sorry for being a pain in the ***

What video? What version of VMWare? What options did you select during the install? If you have this issue again, please include atleast all of those.
