Converter fails to realign partitions after successful conversion

Hello All!

Was wondering if someone can help me out, i'm using Converter 5.1.0 i'm trying to realign a VM running Win2k3 32bit. We previously have cloned this box and made it a test machine, which i've converted that and the machine aligned no problem. But the production box will convert successfully but will not be aligned after the fact.

I use VM Check Alignment v1.0.5 and have been successful in validating 15 machines so far, but this is the first thats not been aligned after conversion.

I've tried looking online but can't find any posts, so wondering if you all can help!

Thanks!

Make sure that the optimize option is checked during the conversion process and make sure you don't have the option to sync changes after the conversion is done. What does the diskpart utility tell you about the offset size?
