Vsphere web client - cannot select boot from ISO via CD/DVD drive

I had used P2v to virtualize an existing Windows 7 machine and upon booting it was telling me that the "the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible". I think I need to run a repair using the Windows 7 image and possibly run a fixboot and fixmbr but when I try to adjust the settings in the vm using the web client to boot from the ISO it shows an error and the ok button to save settings is greyed out. How come it won't let me do this?

Never mind. I had the vm running in Vsphere client while trying to edit the setting in the web client.
