I'm using Kali Linux 2.0 on a VMware VM. It halts the CPU, producing this error.

The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine.

I haven't been able to determine exactly when this happens, but I'm always running these three commands:

I haven't found anything that helped me online. Do you have any ideas about how to find out what is happening and fix it?

Kernel panic is a result of your CPU not liking what's going on. I suggest that you follow this advice from Alexandre Kraft regarding x86 virtualization.

I'm guessing it is aircrack-ng which is causing the problem. Dictionary attacks (which is what I'm assuming you are doing) use a lot of CPU.
