I have some solutions. (If you are experiencing a blue screen this article is not for you). First! Do not fear the black screen. It simply means the path https://amgeneral.wordpress.com/2014/09/03/error-loading-operating-system-in-hyper-v-after-p2v-conversion-via-disk2vhd/ to load Windows cannot be found by the boot loader. This may be due to the boot loader, or it may be due to the MBR or Boot Sector. Let’s just say we aren’t concerned with all of the technicalities and want to fix it. Here’s how. Windows 2008 R2 (Vista, Windows 7, Windows 2008) We’re going https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/jonjor/2011/10/04/vm-does-not-boot-following-p2v-or-disk2vhd/ to fix the entire boot path, despite what part of it is broken. Go find an ISO or DVD of any of the operating systems just listed in the title. Prepare to boot your VM from this media. We’re going to use the recovery console. We’ll assume you are using Windows 7 media. Attach the Windows 7 installation disc to the virtual machine disc drive, and then start the computer. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next. Click Repair your computer. Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt. If an operating system is not found simply continue anyway Type the following command in this order to set your system straight: bootrec /fixmbr (Fixes MBR) bootrec /fixboot (Fixes Boot Sector) bootrec /scanos (Scans for Windows installations to add) Reboot! (Type Exit) If you still do not boot into Windows, or do not hav
virtual environment by VMware converter, this post shows you how to do a VirtualBox P2V with Microsoft utility disk2vhd. This method gave few errors and issues after the conversion but I managed solve it and boot the virtual machine successfully. Let’s see how to http://www.sysprobs.com/virtualbox-p2v-disk2vhd-errors-fix solve these possible errors and do VirtualBox P2V with Microsofts's disk2vhd successfully. Unfortunately this method http://www.altaro.com/hyper-v/using-disk2vhd-for-physical-to-virtual-conversions-p2v/ works on Windows Operating Systems only since disk2vhd is from Microsoft.This utility converts the physical hard disk partitions to VHD (Microsoft Virtual Disk) format which can be used on Oracle VirtualBox. Migrating a working physical Windows computer to VirtualBox platform is very easy by this way. Once it has been converted to VHD format, it can be used with VirtualBox which operating system runs on any OS like Linux or Mac OS X.In this example, I converted my physical computer which is having two Operating Systems (Windows 7 and Windows XP), but Windows 7 to VirtualBox P2V.Steps for VirtualBox P2V with disk2vhd and Fix Errors.1) Download the latest version of disk2vhd (2.01 version)2) Installation is not required, run the program directly.3) It will pick up the physical hard disk partitions from host OS.Important Note: My mistakeBefore go to error loading operating next step, let's understand something clearly!If you want to convert your entire physical disk (for example 500GB with 5 partition) to VHD, then select the all partitions and start the conversion. This will not cause any issues while attaching the VHD to VirtualBox or Virtual PC, except space issue because the converted VHD file will take the same size as 500GB.But, if you want to P2V only specific Operating System and partitions from physical computer, then you must do it properly to avoid problems later.In this example, I like to convert my working Windows 7 host to VirtualBox. So, I must convert the System and boot partitions which are mostly different.Here is my working Windows 7 physical computer.Initially I have converted only Windows 7 boot partition (normally C drive) to save space and time. I know this is not the system partition with boot recorder, but I had the confident to repair and boot virtual machine if it fails to boot later.No matter how many partitions you select and convert, VirtualBox will detect the VHD as the size of full physical disk with correct partitions. When boot loader/recorder not found on any of the disks (Normally its on first partition - E drive for me) OS will not boot.So, my first method returned the following errorA disk read error occurred Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restartIt’s becaus

It is recommended that you use some application-level migration rather than trying to convert a physical operating system installation directly. However, some systems do survive the transition well. One tool that can be used in conversion operations is Sysinternal's Disk2VHD.What is Disk2VHD?Disk2VHD is a software solution provided by Sysinternals. It reads the boot information, partition information, and data regions of a physical hard drive and produces a corresponding VHD or VHDX file. It is very important to understand that this is not a true physical-to-virtual conversion. The operating system is not prepared to run inside a virtual environment, nor is any cleanup work done on the source system to improve the odds of a successful migration.Microsoft Virtual Machine Converter 3.0Before using this Disk2VHD to attempt a P2V, you might try Microsoft's Virtual Machine Converter. It has been expanded to include P2V capability. The tool is provided free-of-charge. Visit the TechNet article for more information. The first link on that page will take you to the download.Downloading and Installing Disk2VHD for Hyper-V P2VSysinternals (now owned by Microsoft) offers this tool as a free download from TechNet. Please read their overview and warnings. There is no actual "installation" of this product. Simply extract the "disk2vhd.exe" file from the ZIP archive and place it on the system whose drives you wish to convert. You can also extra
