BSOD - P2V from XP SP3 to run in Win7

Hello

I created a virtual machine from a machine XP Pro SP3 physical, using VMware vCenter Converter Standalone v4.3.0.

I am trying to run the virtual machine as a guest in one machine ultimate Win7 using the VM player, v3.1.3 build-324285.  I downloaded the converter and player last night (07/03/11).

I get a BSOD when I try to start the virtual machine.

BSOD.PNG

I have been Googling, trying to figure out why, but could not find an answer.  The XP machine has only one 150 GB drive and a single partition, which is 70% of free space.  The resulting vmdk file is about 44 GB.  (I don't think I should be having problems with the 127 GB limit I read)

I get the same errors when I create the virtual computer using disk2vhd and try to run under virtualbox.

Does anyone have ideas of things to try?

Thank you

Jay

7B BlueScreen after P2V of XP Sp3 with Converter 4.3 is expected behavior.

Converter 4.3 misconfigures the default work -please don't ask me why - it's so stupid

4.3 converter, you have the options for the mass storage controller: preserve the controller, IDE, buslogic, free - if I remember correctly.

Only if you select "buslogic" import will probably work.
All the other 3 options produce the bluescreens in most cases.

In rare cases - source machine uses IDE with Intelchipset - the IDE option can work.

Converter 3.0.3 does not offer this option - but it will configure work correctly by default. It will always use "buslogic".

If you know this stupid behavior you can produce results with 4.3 - If no bootable: use 3.0.3 for 2000, XP and 2003 machines source

  • Remove a hard drive from a virtual computer running

    Hello everyone. Is there a way to remove a hard drive from a virtual computer running? Of course we can add a disk to a computer that is incredibly convenient, but there are times that we blow an as well. When clicked on the drive in the VI Client button is grayed out delete. I would have thought that other people would want to do that as well, but looking around the net and forums I find nothing!

  • Upgrade & P2V from 8.5 to 9 +: upgrade then P2V or vice versa?

    Hello

    We seek to improve our servers of Unified Communications and applications (CUCM, CUC, UCCX) version 8.x, and then virtualize on the new virtual machine environment.

    The CUC of CUCM & resident currently on a SAM 7825i4 and UCCX on a 7835I3 MCS.

    All are running 8.0 (2) - a customer is running 8.5 (we also seek to do the same for them).

    Question - what are your opinions about the best to carry out the work?

    Do you recommend for...

    1. first upgrade to version 8.x for 9 + in place (on the existing hardware - which I confirmed has the minimum requirements to run 9 +), and then to perform the P2V (Physical to Virtual) not after the upgrade?
    2. Or do you recommend doing the P2V first, followed by the upgrade from 8.x to 9 + on the new VM?

    I was leaning towards option 1.

    Whoever did this and in what order you do it? All the problems you are having? Any advice you can offer to avoid these issues or to speed up the process would be too large.

    Also in what concerns installation on partition and perform then the 'switch' - allowing the roller to 8.x if necessary - do you know if is the same for the upgrade to 9 + -? Or 9 + managing things differently?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    Hi Brett

    As I do these uppgrades that always seems to work for me.

    • Install a virtual CUCM Editor to the exact version as well as your current editor with the same hostname and IP address (but place it in a network of isolation). Install any additional firmware, settings etc on the new Pub regional.
    • DRS backup physical restoration of PUB and DRS to the virtual.
    • After the restoration, check the DB to ensure that everything looks good.
    • Pass virtual advertising in your target version.
    • After the upgrade, rehost / change the license to the new server.
    • Add / install any subscriber you need.

    Cutover would be simple:

    1. unplug the physical pub / subs from the network.

    2. change the NIC virtual VMware to be in the production network

    Restoration is the same in the opposite direction.

    I try not to change the physical Pub at all during upgrades because it makes the failover / easier restore.

    Regarding the other question on partitions, Yes, the things active / inactive still applies, however an upgrade of 8.5 (or more) to 8.6 (or higher) is an improvement of "Refresh" which takes MUCH more time - at least 2-3 hours per server. This is another reason why I create and update all under VMware, when new servers are not in production. Also note that, depending on your server hardware (including some models of MCS 7825), a conversion of equipment based on software based RAID is performed when you go to 8.6. This stops you being able to roll back without a complete reinstall.

    I turned on my PC only to find out that there was a problem. As usual, I entered my password to connect to my user account. I tried to run "purposelss" desktop application. No, I couldn't access it. When I try to launch an application from the start screen, the start over refreshes and screen binks as if I pressed my Start button. The same thing happens with any other application. I can't access anything anyone at all. I can't turn off my PC. Help out me.

    (1) reset store Cache - Windows key + R, type wsreset.exe, enter

    (2) sync your App store Licensing charms, updated settings APP, sync Licenses

    If the problem persists, run the following commands from a command prompt (Admin)

    (1) sfc/scannow reboot once completed.

    (2) dism.exe/Online/cleanup-image /scanhealth

    (3) dism.exe / online/cleanup-image /restorehealth Reboot and try Apps, if still the problem persists restart sfc / scannow and restart and check if it is resolved.

    Hello Marko

    It is not easy to say what may be the problem but I do not think that this is Toshiba. The fact is that the image recovery and all functionality with the factory settings is tested and everything it works fine.
    The question is what applications you have installed after the installation of Vista. Maybe some of them want to be turned off and after that awakening is simply confused and result BSOD.

    Can you please tell me one thing: have you tested own sleep with preinstalled OS without additional software installed?
