SERVER 2008 R2 and PROPER VIDEO DRIVER

We recently started seeing some issues with Server 2008 R2 virtual machines locking up when using the MMC for a long period of time. These were running on a vSphere 4.1 hardware version 7 virtual machines.
It appears the fix is changing the Video Driver to the VMWARE SVGA 3D WDDM driver and adjusting video RAM for the virtual machines to 32MB. See these links for more info:
