If the tools have already been installed, run the installation again and use the repair option to uninstall the SVGA 3D driver, or uninstall it through Device Manager.įollow the instructions (from VMware) to use the previous SVGA II driver, ensuring that Windows Update does not re-install the WDDM drivers:

You can't! If you ask Microsoft they'll tell you to get Windows 7 Professional (and pay us extra money for it). If you've ever tried to use a computer running Windows 7 Home Premium as a Remote Desktop host you know the sad truth.
