Creating VM from existing disk problem

[actadmin]

Hello everyone,

My problem occurs in the P2V step of creating the new VM using the existing disk i just configured with the p2v helper. I go through the normal steps of creating a new VM from the Virtual Infrastructure client but when i go to choose exisiting disk and browse the datastore location it's located it will freeze up my whole machine. It will also not let me traverse into the datastores to even see the files. Very strange. No matter what machine i use it will freeze up at this point.

I've included a picture located at photobucket to give you an idea of the problem.

Try running VM Converter from another machine. I have run into several issues such as this and switching machines did the trick. Also, try and run VM Converter from a machine that has a gigabit network connection.
