Re: VMWare Converter 3.0.3 Giving "Unable to determine guest operating system" on Windows 2000 SP4

$

Unfortunately I can't reproduce this. Anyway, here are some thoughts:

  • Do you have access to VMware Converter 4.0 or 4.01, which lists "Windows 2000 SP4" as a supported host and guest OS?
  • Did you logon to Windows 2000 using the "Administrator" account, i.e. not just an account with administrative privileges? This might make a difference, because some local security policies in Windows 2000 were/are tied to the Administrator's user account rather than to the Administrator group.

The most interesting log - the worker's one is missing, could you find in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\vmware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\Logs folder and upload?

Just a short question on this. Will restarting the service stop active jobs, or does it continue after a the restart?

Restart will cancel all active jobs, no resume after restarting.

Disabled Antivirus,windows firewall,Symantec Agent,UAC,windows simple file sharing.

There is no clues which program prevent exclusive access to disks... this could be xen tools or something other, check the startup program and services with msconfig.exe

After disabling all programs you mention, did you restart the machine?
