if you can boot to safe mode, then the issue is one of drivers.  can you attempt a repair on the environment.

Check which SCSI-controller is assigned to the VM.
Reconfigure the VM so that LSI-SAS is used.
When that is done - rerun the "Configure machine" of Converter.

Use StarWind V2V Converter to cover Xen VM to ESXi VM.

Now, I'm working with this issue. I have applied all methods on the internet.

Source of the problem is Citrix Xentool version.

Probably you are trying xentools 6.5.x and older version installed VMs. If upgrade to 7.1.x tools it will be working fine with below known method.

After convert;

safe mode > enable msiserver > remove tools > remove drivers (also hidden)> remove registry records starts with xen* (hklm\currentcontrolset1\services and 2) > reboot.

Thanks
