If you are running time machine, restore you backup to where everything was working. Try to repair permission with Disk utilities. Update your OS then attempt to install VMware.

Actually, Leopard was developed to make use of the Intel-based processors, specifically multi-core computers and that, although they can run Leopard, G4 and G5 Macs should stick to 10.4 Tiger OS. Some functions of non-Intel macs would be impaired running Leopard (10.5.x)
So this might be the problem too.

I agree totally now. I mean Leopard is fun and all, but it's mainly best used on the intel and not a reg. processor. Thank you for the help, unfortunately I never really used Time Machine until now. I'm doing a back up of things onto my external. Hopefully I'll be able to do something with all of it. All else fails I'm down grading immediately.
