vmwaregateway pipe not working with 3.1.2

vb version: 3.1.2r56127
Host: XP SP3
Guests: w2k, xp sp3

The serial port is not working in this version of vb (all guest additions are updated also).

I have had the same machines in vb version 3.0.10, there it was running without any problems.

The log says, everyting is ok but I have no serial port in the hardware config for guests.

Please, can somebody confirm this or has somebody a workaround.

I really need this feature for my work.

Solved.

After my update from 3.0.8 to 3.1.2 was "Enable IO APIC" disabled.

The vmwaregateway is now working with all guest systems.
