Hi Johnniedxb, and welcome to the VMware Communities!
You may need to follow these instructions to work around a defect in VMware Converter: Re: VMware opens and quickly closes a virtual machine
Check if your virtual machine's configuration file has those four lines I mention in that post. If it doesn't, add them, and see if your virtual machine can then power on.

Here is the log attached..
Thanks ,,
Unfortunately the most important logs, converter-worker, are missing. You can find them in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\vmware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\ folder, check for .dmp files too.
Also you should check your computer for viruses because the last message in the log is
2015-04-24T03:38:22.650-04:00 [03224 warning 'Default'] Error: 'Error when verify signature is: -2146762486 Error: 2148204810' checking for file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\zip.exe' signature
which is indication for problems, mostly if you can see the proper digital signature from file properties.
Bom dia , senhores, gostaria de saber quem pode me informar onde baixar o Vmware Vcenter Converter Standalone 5.1, ( tem que ser o 5.1 ) pois não consigo encontrar em canto algum .

Good morning, gentlemen. where can I download the (VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 5.1) thanks to all
Hello
The download link is https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/evalcenter?p=converter (you need to have a VMware account). There is 5.1.2 which is a minor upgrade over 5.1 (fixed OpenSSL vulnerability IIRC)

have to be exactly 5.1 support UEFI, where can I download, I thank you.
Bom dia, senhores onde consigo a versão 5.1 exatamente ou 5.1 beta ... pois preciso dela para um servidor com suporte a uefi ...
Desde já agradeço quem puder me mandar..
Senhor,
VMware Converter supports UEFI since 5.1, it is supported in all subsequent versions. The difference between 5.1.2 and 5.1 is a fix in OpenSSL to avoid the risk of Shellshock vulnerability, nothing else. It is not according to the company policy to have vulnerable versions available for download, neither it is advisable for users to use such versions. Are you really sure you want exactly 5.1?
yes, when I use another version accuses who has not, aao support UEFI, in some forum, all speak that only 5.1 or 5.1 beta that solves the upconversion, or using the cold ... the tool can virtualize the server. you have the version 5.1 for download?
I will say again - there is no functional difference between 5.1 and 5.1.2.
And no, it is not available for download.
If you have a problem with a conversion, please upload the logs for examination.
Converter 5.1.2 supports UEFI also, don't worry!
Sua necessidade é fazer um P2V de um servidor com UEFI ? Se for, baixe a versão mais nova do vCenter Converter que pode ser encontrada aqui: https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/info/slug/infrastructure_operations_management/vmware_vcenter_converter_standalone/5_5
Para mais detalhes, veja: VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Documentation
Here are the converter logs attached.
Hello All,

The attached log file collected from server where converter runs.
Please suggest and let me know if you need any more information for the same.

There is nothing in logs that can point what and why is restarted... are there any .DMP files?
However you can try to reconfig only destination VMs if the data is copied.

The error is CERT_E_CHAINING "A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority."
