• VMware Converter, XP and SCSI driver - in addition, deployment

  Hi all

  I created a virtual XP of Windows machine of a physical machine with VMware Converter. But now I'm invited with an error message when you start the virtual machine, stating that I have not a SCSI driver that I need. I did some research on Google about this topic and tried a few things, but have so far is not solved this problem. Any ideas/tips?

  Also, I'm about to deploy this virtual machine through the Casper Suite. There was a white paper by JAMF on the deployment of version 2 of Fusion, but I did not do any concrete documentation with 4. If the resources or experience you have would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

• SCSI driver selectio VM version 7

  Hello

  I'm trying to find a consensus of the SCSI adapter to use, the operating system we have is Win2k3 WIn2k8 SP2, Win2k8 R2.

  For the system OS disk what is the SCSI driver that is recommended for this partition, I read some documents that mention;

  -drive system (Vmware Paravirtual) is not supported, so I guess that's out of the question for c:\ then to d:\ I assume that VMware paravirtual is recommended as it gives the best results.

  - but then for C:\ whats the recommended for Win2k3/wk8 'LSI logic SAS' or 'LSI Logic parallel' we do not use any Windows cluster or other simple stand-alone servers.

  -In addition to d:\ phsycial RDM I assume because I also use "Vmware Paravirtual" for better performance

  fix?

  In addition, once I changed my SCSI driver according to doco.

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1010398

  How can I confirm OS, I use this driver for the disk D:\?

  Thank you very much

• Windows 2000 SCSI Driver BSOD

  Hi all

  I have a Windows 2000 Server that I have P2V once a week for DR purposes. The only problem is that when I tried to start a got a BSOD and have thought that it is a problem of buslogic scsi driver. I had a look at the KB Article: 1005208, which gives instructions on how to install the Vmware scsi on the physical machine drivers before the conversion. It looks all pretty straight forward, however I was wondering what would be the risk to the physical Server does not start after the installation of this?

  Any comment ideas appreciated.

  Concerning

  Rob

  Hello

  Please install windows 2000 rollup pack on the source server and try again p2v. beforing turning on the virtual computer replace buslogic scsi adapter.

• Iomega Zip Drive old (PC) for Mac SCSI drives

  I came across my old Iomega Zip 100 Drive I used with my PC in 1999.  It is a SCSI drive.  I'm all about Apple and Mac during the past 10 years or so.  I have access to a Windows computer with, I think, Windows 98 on it. Is it possible to get pictures off the Zip disks?  I don't want to get a SCSI to USB cable and the ruin of my Mac. The Mac would even read the saved files.  No, I don't know how I saved them.  I just pictures on disks.

  Any information would be greatly appreciated!

  PMZF

  Are you sure it's a SCSI disk (it's relatively rare to find SCSI on a PC)? There was an external parallel version of the Zip 100 drive. The connectors are DB - 25 for both versions, but the SCSI model has a special icon of SCSI ID and termination switches. The Iomega cables parallel and SCSI had different colors. Do not confuse the models. Do not plug in a parallel to a SCSI port, or vice versa.

  In any case, if the Zip drive in question in fact can be successfully connected to the Windows PC (98), you should be able to read the discs, Zip it. There are a few methods that can be used for a transfer to a modern Mac. Is - that computer has Ethernet?

  What exact model of Mac is this? You have access to a USB floppy drive (which can be connected to a Mac)?

  It would also be possible to locate a Zip USB drive that could be linked to a modern computer. It would be a matter of moving the Zip disks only.

• How can I change the player assigned to the SSD for a SATA instead of the SCSI drive?

  Original title: SCSI instead of SATA

  I built a PC with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.  My C: drive is a Samsung 840 Pro SSD.  The system never worked properly and I discovered that the SSD which is a SATA 3 drive in Device Manager is configured as a SCSI disk.  Someone knows how to change the driver assigned to the SSD for a SATA instead of the SCSI driver?

  Hello Uriel,

  Thank you for your response.

  SATA controllers will normally appear as "SCSI" controllers in windows. It's normal and nothing to worry about. Often the SATA controllers will also be able to run in IDE mode and then they present themselves as IDE controllers, but it is unlikely that they will be able to operate optimally, as the IDE interface is missing some features of SATA. So even if you do not have the ability to set the cache in the Device Manager, a SATA controller is running in mode SATA should work just fine.

  The IDE bus is managed by the controller SATA3, and if this control is set in the BIOS to "IDE" somehow it seems related to the operating system as a SCSI device.  By setting this entry in the BIOS to "RAID/IDE" IDE devices get properly detected.

  This can also occur if you change the BIOS settings for the SATA ports of 'IDE' to 'AHCI' after installing Windows 7.

  I hope this information helps.

  Thank you

• Changing from 32-bit Win 7 to 64 - bit Win 7. Do I need a 64-bit SCSI driver for my hard drive SCSI of WD32 00BEKT-00F3T for "clean installation?"

  I am currently using Win 7 Home Premium 32-bit on my laptop.
  I intend to switch to Win 7 64-bit and bought the full product and I am ready to install it. I hesitate only because a previous installation of Windows, I remember being trapped because I didn't have the appropriate manufacturer SCSI driver to install during the installation process of Windows (Vista?).
  Win7 Home Premium 64-bit requires separate SCSI the manufacturer driver during installation (clean install!) or is automatically detected and installed with Win 7 64 bit?
  For your info, my HARD drive is: hard drive Western Digital WD32 00BEKT-00F3T SCSI.
  I see in the properties of the HARD drive under Win 7 32 bit driver running is a Microsft (Driver version 6.1.7600.16385) and so I'm hopeful that the switch, I intend require no road by the manufacturer, and that everything will be taken care by the installation of Win 7 64 bit.
  Can you help me, please?

  Yes, you will need a 64-bit driver, there need not be a native driver for Wndows 7 64-bit, you can also use a Windows Vista 64-bit driver if one is available.

• How can I stop the VMware Fusion installation virtual vmware mouse driver?

  Most of the time after I get windows 8 using vmware fusion, I uninstall the usb vmware mouse driver. Even after that I installed it, the guest operating system still works, but it installs it again when I suspend and resume the virtual machine.

  Delete the file vmusbmouse.sys from the folder C:\Windows\System32\drivers and then find the folder C:\Windows\inf, hidden by default, the oemN.file file, where N on oemN is a number containing vmusbmouse.inf and remove it and the file oemN.PNF corresponding in the C:\Windows\inf folder.

  Also delete the folder C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\vmusbmouse.inf_*.

  This should prevent Windows to automatically install the driver for the vmusbmouse.

• SCSI driver for NT4 installation in the drive?

  I try to install Win NT4 in the drive. When I boot from cd I get a message

  Windows NT does not include drivers for the card Player VMWare BusLogic SCSI uses for virtual SCSI devices.

  To use these virtual SCSI devices, install the VMWare driver in the virtual machine. Download the driver from

  I guess that you plan to drag & drop with this! There are other options too, for example to copy the file on a network share on the computer virtual NT4, or "burn" an ISO image with the SP6 on her file and attaching it to the virtual CD-ROM drive of the virtual machine.

• Erroneous Buslogic SCSI driver WARNING - WinXP running in Fusion on Mac

  En Fusion 4 and now in Fusion 5, whenever I start my Windows XP VM I get this warning: "Windows XP does not include drivers for the BusLogic SCSI adapter used for SCSI devices virtual VMware Fusion." To use these virtual SCSI devices, install the VMware driver in the virtual machine. «Download the driver of "http://vmware.com/info?id=43".»  However, the virtual machine works very well.  I would like to get rid of this false alarm, and I searched the threads on this forum but also by looking at Knowledge Base articles.  I find information about it and even get instructions on adding a line (buslogic.nodriver = 'FALSE') to a configuration file to disable the warning, but the suggestions do not work or there is no location where the configuration file is supposed to be.  I'm under Fusion on a MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.2 retina.

  Does anyone have a method to update on how to stop this annoying warning?

  Thank you

  Scott

  Hi Scott,.

  The procedure has not changed, there is no update instructions.

  You can add the option directly in the virtual computer configuration file by following the instructions in the Knowledge Base article.

  I note that your message said that you added

  RiverdBusLogic.no = "FALSE".

  but the option is case sensitive and must be entered as well

  River BusLogic.noD= "FALSE".

  I don't know if it's a typo in your post on the forum here or if that's what you used in your virtual machine configuration.  If you used the name of lower-box only in your previous attempts, maybe try again with a capital "D" and see if that fixes the problem.

  See you soon,.

• SCSI driver is missing in the virtual machine. Driver is missing in the provided website. Instructions on how to install the driver (once you find) are missing.

  I get the text following error encrypted every time that I boot Windows XP in VMWare Fusion, since I've upgraded to version 4.02 a few months ago.  So I upgraded to version 5.02 hoping the error would go, but he didn't.

  When I try to start it, it says "he has at least a virtual SCSI device installed on this virtual Windows XP computer.

  Windows XP does not include the drivers for the card SCSI BusLogic VMware Fusion uses virtual SCSI devices.
  To use these virtual SCSI devices, install the VMware driver in the virtual machine. "Download the driver of"http://vmware.com/info?id=43"."
  Once I have to dismiss the message, everything seems to work properly.  How can I make this message disappear?

  I tried to go to the useless link that is provided (http://vmware.com/info?id=43), but it takes me just for a general download for all VMWare products page.  Then I tried searching for "SCSI" but it does not have the driver, I'm supposedly dedicated research

  After doing a bit of searching around, I finally found a driver called "vmscsi - 1.2.0.4.flp ', I connect to my virtual floppy drive.  Once I did, my virtual machine wouldn't boot (I get the error "NTDLR is missing.)  I then unplugged the virtual floppy drive, and now my virtual machine starts again.  I then re-connected the drive floppy and discovered the following content:
  Disk.Tag
  Txtsetup.OEM
  vmscsi.cat
  vmscsi.inf
  smscsi.sys
  OK... Now what?  No installer?  What the hell am I supposed to do with it?  I tried a double click on all of these files and have no significant results.  When the pilot is supposed to go?  No instructions? -What VMware calls "support"?

  The VMware Tools GUI has been removed because it has now integrated with the Virtual Machine settings, however you can still use the command line.

• How to create an IDE instead of SCSI drive?

  Hi all

  $myVM | new-harddisk - capacityKB 1234

  Creates a SCSI hard drive.

  Is there a switch/hack/workaround to create an IDE hard drive?

  Or modify an existing SCSI hard drive to become an IDE one?

  Concerning

  marc0

  It is, but you don't see the form to change the settings.

  Note also that this is a very limited controller, you can for example add 2 devices.

  So if you have 2 CD/DVD set as IDE, you will not be able to add an IDE drive on the same controller.

  The following script will add an IDE hard drive.

  $vmName = "MyVM" $hdSize = 8 * 1GB
  
  $vm = Get-VM -Name $vmName
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
  # Check if there is an IDE COntroller present $ideCtrl = $vm.ExtensionData.Config.Hardware.Device | where {$_.GetType().Name -eq "VirtualIDEController"} | select -First 1 if(!$ideCtrl){
      $ctrl = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec    $ctrl.Operation = "add"    $ctrl.Device = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualIDEController    $ideKey = -1    $ctrl.Device.ControllerKey = $ideKey    $spec.deviceChange += $ctrl}
  else{
      $ideKey = $ideCtrl.Key
  }
  
  # Get next harddisk number $hdNr = 0 $vm.ExtensionData.Config.Hardware.Device | where {$_.GetType().Name -eq "VirtualDisk"} | %{
      $nr = [int]$_.DeviceInfo.Label.Split(' ')[2]
      if($hdNr -lt $nr){
          $hdNr = $nr    }
  }
  if($hdNr -eq 0){$hdNrStr = ""}
  else{$hdNrStr = "_" + $hdNr}
  
  # Get datastore $dsName = $vm.ExtensionData.Config.Files.VmPathName.Split(']')[0].TrimStart('[')
