I'll "suggest". Do not deploy CentOS 7 now. It reaches end of life in 4 months time and then it will be dead. It's not worth the effort to install it now, use something newer.

+1 to that.

Is "vmware player" a hypervisor? Don't most hypervisors allow some control on what kind of "hardware" the VM guest has access to? IME, an issue with guest is usually that not enough is "passed through" to guest. Logically, in this case the hypervisor should probably pretend to be "way less" than the actual hardware.

Alas, as said, CentOS 7 is not the distro that anyone should want to install any more.
