Nothing we can do about. They build in a check for virtual environments. There is no way we can work around it, without hacking it, and that's illegal. I'm locking this one, the error explains itself. Run it native.

If the manufacturer specificly mentions on their website/support that they don't support VM then it will never work, VM mode can be detected, you can't completely hide all VM items from the Guest.
