How did you create the VM?

Which virtual HW did you use for the VM?

It could be that the Windows OS doesn't have a driver for the controllertype you used.

$esxi="esxi12.ocap.loc"
$ressource1 = (Get-vmhost -Name $esxi| Get-ResourcePool)
$datastorevm= (Get-vmhost -Name $esxi|Get-Datastore -Name 'vol7_Cl3')

$esxi="esxi12.ocap.loc"

$ressource1 = (Get-vmhost -Name $esxi| Get-ResourcePool)

You will have to give us a bit more info.
Which Windows OS are you trying to install?

Since you didn't specify a GuestId I assume the default that was taken is Windows XP. Is that correct.

Is the SCSI controller of type BusLogic?
Which ESXi version are you using?
