Long time ago I tried to use GDS2 in VMware. After of fails I give it up and I installed it in native windows.
I don't remember whic was the last GDS2 version that works under XP. As I know all goes to Windows 7 or 10.
Also I have just a genuine MDI not a MDI2
Please share some pics to see your issue to understand better.
Good luck

All my MDI's are genuine from Opel dealers. 
I don't know why this VM GDS2 comes with XP, but it reaches until 2016 cars, so is relatively recent.
With MDI 1 works good. The reason I want MDI 2 is because is a much more robust tool, don't use the weak usb connection that MDI 1 uses, and has the WIFI expansion. 
What disturbs me is that under VM, MDI manager shows MDI 2 correctly (and I am talking always with cable), but once in GDS2 happens what I 
told before.

Tomorrow I will make some pics.
