I'm using CPU. Inside the VM I used these instructions from @abit and @joseph to get the patched version of steemd compiled and running.

For setting up the vm, this link might also be helpful for you, although I used virtualbox instead of vmware, and I found that I had performance issues until I put the VM onto a different disk from the windows operating system and swapping.
