Standalone converter changes the letter of the system drive

I have a Windows 2003 server that I am trying to convert a server has a guest VM using vCenter Converter Standalone.  The original drive letters for this server are where the F: drive is my system startup disk f: and g:.  I go to throughout the process, the aim said drive F: and G: but when it's done it gives me an error found no operating system.  I start the machine and choose the Windows Recovery mode and now see that the drive letters are replaced with c: and d: drives that is why it will not start. I tried to use diskpart to recovery mode, but it does not change these drive letters.  How to change or stay to F: and G: when you use vcenter converter?

Thank you.

Well, which explains a lot... as a domain controller.

    b. now click organize , and then click on folder and search options.

    c. click the display and check to select Show hidden files, folders and drives.

    d. click apply and OK. Check if you see all the fonts.

    Yes, you can reinstall Windows 7 OEM System Builder License on the new hard drive with the new processor.

    It will not be a problem in this case, since you don't "move" installation, you are doing a new installation. The less it will take is activation of the phone, as you change the hard drive:

    Hello

    Another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the Disk Image correct ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • Windows 8.1 refuses to encrypt the system drive

    Reference Dell place 8 Pro Tablet running Windows 8.1 (not Pro). After much frustration with this unit, I decided to dry completely and do a fresh install of Windows. And indeed, all of my previous problems just disappeared. - But there is now a new: BitLocker refuses to (self-) encrypt the system drive, as it is supposed to do. Windows claims that the device encryption is temporarily suspended but will resume after the next startup. However, no matter how many times I reboot the device, encryption/protection remains in the suspended state. The venue Pro 8 has a secure TPM, or more precisely a fTPM (TPM firmware). I am somewhat familiar with the TPMs management and then I went through procedures to prepare the TPM (which was what the suggested corresponding event logs), but it did not help. As the version of the OS is ordinary Windows (and not Windows Pro), the BitLocker feature is very limited, but sufficient to reveal 'Key protectors' are missing. If I have Windows 8.1 handling of automatic encryption, white protective key test should have been filled as soon as Windows has managed to record a recovery on my outlook account key. That, however, seems will never happen. Maybe because Windows has seen the device before that soft install. But even remove the device from my account, and then add that this return has not changed things.
