On Windows 7 installation on VMWare, following WMI query:

Select ChassisTypes from Win32_SystemEnclosure

is returning 1 (Other), and not expected value 3 (Desktop). It returns correct type on HyperV virtual machine, however.

What can be done to get correct Chassis-type on VMWare' VM? Any other WMI class, registry?
