    As you mentioned, you are not able to install vmware tools, so that means vmware workstation is installed successfully. Instead of installing vmware tools, do get some other options like to update the installations? If you get that option, that means vmware tools is already installed, try connection to the internet and select the other option of upgrade. See if it gets upgraded. Do post back what happens...
