Downloaded and installed VMWare VCenter Converter Standalone. Started to convert an older Dell Inspiron desktop running Vista to an external hard drive. Got to the point of selecting the location to store the resultant VM machine and realized there was not enough room. Uninstalled several programs to shrink size of my C: drive so the converted file would fit on the external drive. When tried to run Converter again, after select Powered on Machine and Local machine and hit next, get the error Unable to obtain hardware information for the selected machine. Am attaching diagnostic file. My computer is dying, sometimes won't boot. Trying to make a VM machine before it dies. Please help.
