Convert virtual disk from IDE to SCSI now Server 2008 does not start

Hi all

I hope that one of you guys can solve my problem.

I'm new to vmware and have managed to convert my 2008 physical server to a virtual server, but when this virtual disk has been set to IDE, I read that I need to use SCSI for better performance then I attributed a new virtual disk to my server and clone the IDE hard drive on the SCSI disk using EASEUS disk copy software.

After I cloned the drive I removed the IDE hard disk but my server continues to display the BSOD 0x0000007b error (inaccessible boot volume). I can't start normally or through safe mode. If I try to use the recovery mode no drives appear.

I use the LSI Logic SAS controller type and have tried the parallel LSI Logic Controller without result.

Is it possible to fix my guest operating system, without having to reinstall?

Thank you very much

Robbie

    Hi John,.

    I checked your logs - thank you for them!  That you use in an accident in one of the Apple libraries (OpenSSL, to be precise), which uses VMware Fusion.

    I see a number of Mac OS X 10.4.11 users complain about the accident even in iTunes:

    They claim that the installation of the latest Apple security updates (they specifically mention 2008-007) solves the problem.

    Can you try to install the latest security updates, and let us know if this fixes the bug Apple?

  • Windows Defender: I think that I accidentally turned off Windows Defender by using Windows Defender. Now, Windows Defender does not start

    I think I accidentally turned off Windows Defender by using Windows Defender.  Now, Windows Defender does not start.  How can I get this start?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

    And also read this:

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

    See you soon.

  • Windows 7 upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit, 64 does not start on its own

    I am trying to upgade win 7 32-bit to 64-bit. I bought a new copy of Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.  It does not start on its own, is there some

    type of bootloader on the net. who's going to help or what!

    To learn how to change your BIOS options to boot from the DVD drive, the following tutorial:

    http://notebooks.com/2011/05/05/How-to-load-BIOS-and-change-boot-configuration/

    -----------------------------------------------
    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  • Conversion of MS Exchange Server disk from IDE to SCSI blue screens

    Nice day

    We are running a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 on a virtual machine in Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition on VMWare vSphere 5.1.0 with the following discs:

    1 C: / Capacity 50 GB space free 22.5 GB (OS)

    2 E: / 600 GB capacity, free 291 (Exchange database) GB space

    3 F: / 360 GB capacity, space free 146 GB (Log files)

    All of these disks are IDE and try to change in SCSI, we made a clone of Exchange running and to turn the server works smoothly, then IDE.

    Because the Exchange running is still active, the clone is assigned an IP address outside of the vlan operational and is able to start and to flow normally, although some services, requiring probably the DNS do not start.

    To work towards a smooth conversion, we changed all the Services of MS Exchange Server in manual start mode and followed the guidelines that provide by the link: VMware KB: conversion of a virtual IDE disk to a virtual SCSI disk

    The same steps had previously worked for our virtual machine running Sage ACCPAC, but for the Exchange, immediately after changing SCSI drives and the switching on of the machine it blue screens and returns the message that we run a startup repair or start Windows normally.

    As there is just no image to us for this and Windows starting is normally on the screen even in failed attempts to run a startup repair.

    Anyone who has managed to convert a disk Server MS Exchange VM to IDE SCSI, kindly help what to do even if with off the server always returns the same error messages.

    Assuming that the manual conversion is ok and the virtual controller selected to add the LSI Logic SAS as mentioned by tomtom901, you may still be missing appropriate drivers in Windows. In order to inject the required driver, or temporarily add another disk virtual SCSI connected to a controller LSI Logic SAS before changing records virtual or secret the data first disks, make sure the VM powers on and load the drivers and then convert the drive system in a second step.

    PS: I removed your duplicate post in the forum of converter. Hope that's ok with you?

  • surge in the House and now the pc does not start

    Despite beinbg plugged into a surge protector, it seems as if the power went out while I was away from home and this caused a wave (a conclusion). I guess it was a wave because now my HP 7250n media center pc will not start. Do not nothing fans. Just completely dead.

    What did I try? The light on the back of the computer remains turned on, so I followed the steps I have read on HP forum as an advisor help what to what power is out and the light stays on (as opposed to Flash, which it is not). I held the power button down while the system was disconnected. No power. I then tried to move the tension and then again, although the system was disconnected. It did not return the power. I opened the side panel and confirmed that the sons were running to the motherboard and have been connected correctly.

    Of course, I tried the machine on several different points of sale, and it is not a function of a defective surge protector or the decision-making.

    I have read one or two related forums which involved a debate between whether a PSU or of the motherboard problem. But I am pretty illiterate about these issues and don't know how to test or change a PSU. And the motherboard, I won't try to play with that. One of the messages, said if the light remained on was probably the case that the power supply was still OK, but this did not mean he would be able to power your computer (and did not say what to do if the light remains on, but rather continued to discuss what to do if the light flashes... that's not my situation). I guess I'm willing to try things if anyone has any suggestions, but I did the basic things that are offered at the beginning already. Are there next steps that someone can suggest?

    Thank you.

    Gordon, here is the information on the Belkin surge protector that I use:

    Model: BE112234-10
    Belkin 12-Outlet Surge coaxial Protection

    There are 3960 joules (prn. jewellery) of surge protection.  I don't understand the terminology entirely, but my son is an electrician and specialist in security system (low voltage) and he said it's a lot.  At least, for our part of the country.  It has also 12 points of sale with several outlets for small transformers that lift so much space.

    Replace a power supply is not so difficult.  The key is to watch where the wires are connected when you delete them.  You can take a photo before you start.  This will give you an idea of the area where they are going.  Most of the news of the PSU have the wires marked clearly as to where they connect.  The motherboard connectors are also marked clearly.  The hardest part is to get all the cables that are placed so that they don't block air to one of the components.  Need me normally up to an hour to do it correctly.  Sometimes, you need to get inventive with bigger cables.

    If you need assistance with the project, let us know.

  • Uninstalled McAfee, now the computer does not start - crashes at MUP. SYS

    Hi new to the forums here - I'm pretty desperate at this point - here's the game:

    I guess that the problem lies with the uninstall - never had any problems before and did a reinstall of fees<1 year="" ago. ="" computer="" is="" only="" used="" as="" htpc="" and="" occasional="" web="">

    McAfee, asked me to reboot after uninstall so I agreed.  I assumed that I would run the McAfee removal tool once the computer has been restarted, but now my computer freezes right on a black screen after the initial startup.  When I boot in safe mode, the computer hangs on the last file MUP. SYS.  I have left on all night, still will not get past the MUP. SYS

    I have run chkdsk and found 0 errors.  I also followed the indications of MS here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545 does not.  I used Hiren boot and back up my data.

    Running XP MCE 2005 cumulative 2 - SP3.  The computer is a Sony Vaio - so I did not have a full XP disk, only the recovery discs (thanks to strip sony!).  I downloaded a copy of the recovery console which I can boot to.  Is there a way I can run the MCPR.exe since the recovery console?  What else could be the cause? Thank you very much!

    PS I also unplugged all devices except for my keyboard and mouse.

    Unfortunately I do not know which files to delete McAfee.  I guess there could be hundreds of them.

    I sincerely apologize for bad reading you post. The problem was more than likely caused by the process of uninstalling McAfee. Hang up on MUP. SYS actually has nothing to do with the Ministry of the INTERIOR. SYS file. It is simply the last file loaded by windows when an attempt to start in safe mode has been selected. There are a number of issues that can cause this error. As I said above, in your case, it was likely to McAfee.

    Follow the instructions below carefully to perform a restore of the system using Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset (MSDaRT). You will need a computer to work with a working cd rom and a dvd/CD blank.

    Download and install ISO Recorder version for the operating system of the non-working computer to work.

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download and install the Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Tool to the work computer from the link below, choose the default installation during Setup.

    http://www.Softpedia.com/progDownload/Diagnostics-and-recovery-toolset-download-100885.html

    CD blank insert in your cd/dvd burner. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset and right click erd50.iso, select and then copy the image to a CD . Follow the instructions in this link to complete the creation of the bootable cd.

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/HOWTO.htm

    Once completed, restart the PC with the cd in the drive and start over the cd to verify that it works correctly. If successful in the computer non-Boot.

    Boot with the cd and when prompted, connect to the operating system (should show C:\windows).

    Once connected, click Start > system tools > system restore
    The interface of the system restore opens where you can choose to restore the system to an earlier time.

    Select the restore point, follow the guests and restart when prompted, remove the cd during the reboot.

    Kind regards

  • Is it possible to disable or remove an add-on from the outside of the FF (it does not start after adding an addon)

    I installed the addon and now FF won't start and seems to be a loop. Is it possible to uninstall the addon or configure FF so that it starts with disabled addons? Don't forget that FF does not at all so I don't have access to one of the internal functions.

    Release the FF is 17.0.1, on Windiows XP/SP3

    In addition, as soon as I did this, I would have the addon added to the red list.

    Open Firefox in Safe Mode diagnosis by holding down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. Firefox will start with Extensions and some other things off. When done with the Safe Mode, the release of Firefox, wait a few seconds and click the Firefox desktop icon to start Firefox in normal mode.

    More info on who and by removing manually extensions, if any, included in the following articles:

    Additional follow-up questions:

    • Name of the add-on?
    • Link to which you downloaded the add-on?
    • Was this a separate application? If Yes, have you looked in Control Panel > add or remove programs (or programs and features) to see if it is listed and remove from there?
  • Failed Windows 7 upgrade - now my computer does not start - what do I do?

    I tried to upgrade to Windows Vista 64 for Windows 7 64.  During installation to 75% of the last step, the computer "hung up" for hours.  I abandoned the installation to fail.  Have no idea why it does not have since I ran the compatibility test, deleted all the programs of conficting, anti-virus, etc.

    Now, I can't get the computer to boot.  I tried to go the last good start with Vista 64 and the operation failed.  I also tried a variety of corrections that are posted on several forums.  All I can get is a continuous loop of the attempts to start (for example. Windows - Vista - HP diagnoistics of screen - screen black screen prompts - and then he repeats)

  • Updated vCenter, now SRM service does not start.

    We have put SRM implementation.  We have vcenter, SRM servers on separate boxes.  We have updated our vcenter since version 4.0 to 4 Update 1 servers.  Somewhere in there the VMwarevCenter Site Recovery Manager Server service has stopped.  Now, when we try to start it, it starts and stops again.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    In the face of problems always get your eyes on the newspapers.  I just go to the start menu for 'generate the site recovery manager newspaper bundle' or something like that...  Try to start your service, newspapers will turn, generate a bundle and after the last log.  The most common cause for this problem is a lack of database connectivity, but it could really be a lot of things.  Let's see these newspapers!
