Converter driver for 2000 server

[elijah1]

I'm having troubles using converter to convert 2000 server (physical box) to VM on v center. It actially converts but when you start the VM it fails with "Inaccessible boot device". I thought it was due to the fact that Converter doesn't support RAID controllers but this server has IDE drive.

Then I've found the articel that says:

"On source system that runs Windows 2000, you must install the special driever and reboot the system".

The funny thing is I don;t seem to be able to find this driver... anybody can point me to the right direction?

Thanks.

Elijah.

ESX does not support IDE drives, so you need to explicitly choose Buslogic during the Coverter wizard or you can perform the follwing task after the fact:
