I had to have 2 instances at the 2 different vmware bases, in your case, 2 windows8 with vm player.

I have had similar issues after setting the serial number and nvram sysid. The workaround is creating the two vsims separately. Not sure why it doesn't take the updated serial once already set, but by the time it took to troubleshoot, I was able to manually create the second one in less time than trying to fix the copy.
