Error when importing a sv2i

Greetings all!

I am getting dynamic\active disk error on a couple of imports I am doing. The weird thing is these disks are not dymanic and the correct drive is set to active.

I am able to import other sv2i images just fine with the exception of these two. The full error is below. Ideas?

Since no one's answered, maybe you can try Converter. It might be able to do the conversion.
