Windows Server 2003 P2V: unable to get material information

I am trying to convert the server windows 2003 32-bit, I did several times before but this is the first time I'm in trouble.

Already tried 4 converter versions (4.0, 4.3, 5.1, 5.5), but I continue to have this problem:

I run the "convert machine" application, choose "this machine", but when I try to move forward, after a few seconds it says "Unable to obtain material information."

I joined the newspapers and see THEM for myself, but I can't seem to find out what is the problem.

Tried to reboot, restart the services. I am logged on as administrator, and it also launched "as Administrator".

It is a local installation.

Problem solved, I added 4 extra hard drives and has yet to initialize them. Now it runs!

  • Windows Server 2003 P2V domain controller

    I tried to understand the best way to do it.  We have a backup domain controller that is programmed to be either P2V would or recreated as a virtual machine.  Whatever it is, it's going to happen in our cluster HA.  I wonder if we can make just a P2V using the converter bootable without problems or would it not be better to organize a new virtual machine, and then go through the process of promotion and demotion.  Has anyone ran into any ING questions P2V one domain controller?  I can't really find any advice on this with the exception of a Microsoft document.  I looked on the forum and the exchange of Experts, and the general consensus seems to be, just do not do.  It is best to start from scratch.  I said why?  What happens when you P2V one domain controller?  If this isn't a secondary domain controller, so what about the PDC?  Are there unwritten rules on that?  A white paper that can be nice to look at?  Any help that anyone can give would be great.  For us, the easy way is to P2V, but if this isn't a good idea, then I guess we have the opposite effect.

  • Wireless AP do not communicate with Windows Server 2003 box on the cable network

    I have a wired network which has 2 PC under Windows 7, 1 PC Windows XP Pro, 2 LAN printers and a Windows Server 2003 as customers.

    The network through a switch and a router Comcast of class business.

    I am trying to add a wireless network access point and when I do the AP and the box of Windows Server 2003 are unable to speak / ping each other, even if strangelyboth of devices are able to communicate with all devices and clients on the network. These two will be just talk to each other. It doesn't matter if I use an access point or wireless router. Any wireless device attached with a cable of the switch won't talk on the server and vice versa.

    Laptop wireless connected to the AP take a DHCP of the router/modem Comcast address and can get on the internet, they just can't see the server as cable customers can. Any suggestion would be appreciated to grreatly.

    Hi all

    Once the converter VMware-converter-en - 5.5.1 - 1682692 does not work, with a touch of friend uninstall the 5.5 version of Converter Standalone Client, look for the VMware converter version - 4.0.0 - 146302 and install this version to the other machine. No not that I had to be Converter, but the windows 7 Pro 64-bit.

    After this race, the Standalone Client 4.4 Converter and everything work fine.

    Now I have the P2V converted and good machine, as was the real operation!

    I thank all of you.

    Best regards

  • Tecra A10 - 12O: installing the driver network card in Windows Server 2003 R2 Std

    Hello

    I received 6 laptop Tecra A10 - 12O, and we need to install Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition with SP2 in all these six machines. Windows Server 2003 has been installed perfectly, but now we have only the network LAN card to work but we are unable to install its driver. When I installed Windows XP from the supplied DVD for Toshiba, it says Intel 82567V Gigabit network adapter. I tried to download the drivers for this adatpor of drivers Toshiba, Intel Web site, but it will not install in Windows Server 2003. I also tried manually force to choose and install a driver from the list, I choose that it will install but shows yellow question mark in Device Manager means that it does not work with this driver.

    I also tried the same Intel 82567V drivers from some sites non-Toshiba, of these models using the same network card, but is not truck drivers at all.

    I understand these laptop computers does not support Windows Server 2003, but these were ordered to be used as servers with Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and I am required to make the Installer only with activated and installed network adapter.

    I try last week and exhausted all means to get the installed network adapter driver, but all have failed. Can someone please help with this? All support will be highly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy

    If I m not wrong Windows Server 2003 uses the same drivers as Win XP and I guess that it s driver problem not a LAN, but perhaps also the problem of Windows Server 2003 installed.

    You are right; the LAN chip seems to be Intel 82567V and the LAN driver downloaded from Intel page should work 100%.

    In your case, I would recommend installing the chipset driver.
    Remove the LAN card from Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
    Then go back to Device Manager and update driver in pointing devices Manager to the place where the driver downloaded LAN was stored on the HARD drive.

    The installation of MSOFfice 2010 requires MSXML version 6.10.1129.0 to be installed on your computer.  Install this component and restart the installation.

    Fairly straightforward error message, I have so from Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0 Service Pack 1 and went to install this.

    Unfortunately, I encountered a problem when trying to install MSXML6.0, which is:

    This installation package is not supported by this processor type, contact your product provider.

    I guess I'm trying to use an incorrect version of the MSI, but I can't seem to find anything other than:

    msxml6_ia64.msi

    msxml6_x64.msi

    msxml6_x86.msi

    Who all seem to not what I'm looking for, I tried google MSXML 32 bit but without much luck.

    I was wondering if thing exists or if anyone has any advice that could help me please?

  • Need driver Audio for Windows server 2003 for the INSPIRON 1545 laptop

    Hi all

    I need Audio and video drivers for my new laptop computer Inspiron 1545 laptop. It now supports drivers for Vista, XP and Windows 7 only.

    I installed Windows server 2003 to install SAP. But I am unable to get the sound.and not able to install video and audio drivers.

    Please help me how to get these drivers.

    Thanks in advance,

    Delphine.

    Delphine,

    This is how it was done before Vista. There could be a better way now.

    1 enable the Windows Audio Service. (This should already be activated in 2003 Standard Edition). For other versions:

    Go to start/run and type "services.msc" and press the 'Enter' key (or click on 'ok'). The Services window appears. Scroll down the page until you find "Windows Audio" to the bottom of the list. Double-click on it and change the type of startup to automatic, and then click Start, apply, then OK.

    2. download and install the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 KB901105 update from this page of Microsoft:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=901105

    3. restart.

    4 install the audio driver for Windows XP. If you have trouble to install it using Windows XP compatibility mode.

    5. set the hardware acceleration DirectX:

    Click Start/run and type "dxdiag" and press the 'Enter' key (or click on 'ok'). Go to the Audio tab and move the slider to 'Level of hardware acceleration Sound' at full speed.

    So you are saying I need to download the latest version of ESX/vSphere and then extract the VM Tools of which rpm?

    It might be a way to get them, if you are unable to install the product.

  • Installing drivers in Windows Server 2003 with USBKeyPrepF6 to a PE2850 REBUILD the difficulty

    I need to rebuild a PE with Windows Server 2003 STD 2850, and I can't get the server to read a USB flash drive as a floppy disk. I am using the USBKeyPrepF6 program, but something being guard corrupted the USB key. The only time wherever it seemed that the program worked the server could not read the flash drive. I activated the Floppy USB option in the bios of the server. I have used this program once before with another driver and another server, a PE of 1950, but I can't make it work this time.

    I use a Windows 7 computer. The flash player is corrupted at some point, because Windows cannot read more and I am prompted to format the drive. The only way I can get the formatted drive is using DIKSPART in a command window.

    This PE2850 has a floppy drive, but I can't read a disk either.

    Any suggestions? Try to reuse the old material here...

    Do not use the USBKeyPrep utility, or the floppy disk. Use nLiteOS.com to integrate the drivers into your installation media instead. Or use a modern operating system.
