clivebuckwheat Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 Using Vmware converter , and upon attempting to boot up the newly converted virtual machine . I get a blue screen of death, see attached screen shot any ideas what the problem is?. I also posted this problem in vmware communities but no responses yet. MSFN has always been top notch in helping me solve my technical issues, so I thought i'd give it a shot. Any help would be appreciated.
submix8c Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) I haven't used VMware before but I suspect when you converted and started it, it wasn't set up to use the same MoBo type (e.g. Intel vs Via) and/or HAL (eg MP vs STD) as the physical machine. I believe there is a way to "define" the Machine in VMware. Edited February 11, 2011 by submix8c
myselfidem Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Maybe you can find help here about this issue:Windows Tuesday patch 'breaks' VMware *Edit:Personally I don't use VMware, but Oracle VM VirtualBox.But sometimes I've the same trouble when I make an test on my computer Windows 7 64 bit for an Image ISO Windows 7 32 bit, with another Graphic Divers!In this case I create a new Virtual Drive and I create a new time the iso file untill everything is working fine! I think that it is a limit - "or a bug" - or "not good drivers"; of the Virtual Machine when the computer have others divers that the iso file we are testing! Edited February 11, 2011 by myselfidem
allen2 Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 The crash debug is most likely coming from storage drivers that aren't configured properly (the vmwaredisk drive isn't ide or the boot drive of the physical machine wasn't using an ide driver). Use driver injection to install the right one (you might need to extract it from vmware tools ).
