Using convert 4.0.1 on a windows Vista x64 machine.

It errors out at about 98% with an InternalError.

Not sure how to find the important information in the logs, so I attached them to the initial post.

And ideas would be helpful...

at 98% the imaging part of the job should be done - can you check if the VM was created successfully ?

If yes - just reconfigure it again - sometimes this helps

It is there, but won't start properly.

How do I re-configure it exactly?

I think I see how to do a re-configure. It says that reconfiguration is not support for the selected source. It does correctly show it as Vista 64-bit

? - just launch Converter and click "configure machine"

I seleced the newly created VM that was on my server.

One thing I just noticed, is that the VM is only 11G even though the source machine has 86G of used space.

I have the same whem problem with reconfiguration of Fedora VM

under Windows. Guest OS is properly working and I use it

without any problems. Does the problem depend on image

or Converter app?
