VMWare Player CTRL ALT DEL

Odd title?
As posted earlier, I managed to get VMware player 2.5 to open my VM (Windows XP Pro) that I had previously been running on Workstation 6.05. The only problem that I was left with was how to log in to the system.
Being Windows, it required CTRL+ALT+DEL to open up the log-in prompt. However, CTRL+ALT are the Vmware Player hot-keys to release the VM session.
The documentation says that CTRL+ALT+INS should do the job, but I found that this had the same effect – simply releasing the VM session.
After alot of playing around, I’ve discovered that CTRL+ALT+Prnt Scrn is the correct combination to log into your Windows XP VM session.
Enjoy the fact!
