Windows 2008 P2V

[Saidovic]

Hi all,

I tried to convert a Windows 2008 R2 Entreprise edition to a VM using plateSpin, but this did not succed. I recieve a BleuScrren with the followin error message :

"

STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}

The Session Manager Initialization system process terminated unexpectedly status of 0xc000003a (0x00000000 0x00000000).

The system has been shu down.

"

Did sombody had the same issue when converting a windows 2008 servers?

NB: I use an online conversion and using physical to phisical mode, because I created the an empty VM with the necessary ressources requirements.

Thank you

Platespin does not support GPT, make sure the source is not in GPT but MBR disk. also what bout trying in take control mode?

Hi idle-jam

Thank you for your reply.

How I can check this on the source server? and why this issue appear only for windows 2008 and not others systemes version?
