Set up a new version 11 vm. Had no mouse so had to use keyboard to install win 10 using an iso created from Microsoft. Installed VM tools using keyboard only as well. Rebooted and screen has been black. I enabled and disabled 3D graphics. Black screen either way. I set a 10 second delayed boot but hitting f8 does not offer me safe mode. Don't have vsphere client, only web client. <br />
<br />
Any ideas to get a screen view appreciated.

Black screen on new version 11 VM

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
