Does this help?! please remember that installing Exchange on a domain controller is never recommended!

Have you verified that your CPU supports running 64-bit guest OS?

VMWare actually has a tool that will let you know if your CPU will support 64-bit guest OSes.

http://www.vmware.com/download/ws/drivers_tools.html (down to Processor Check for 64Bit Compatibility)

Also please read this document -> http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1003945
