Hi all,
I am trying to virtualize an old XP SP3 box with Converter 5.5.3-2183569 on the local machine. The converter fails immediately with this error "Unable to obtain hardware information for the selected machine". I googled the error and checked out all the proposed fixes. None worked. So far I have tried:
Followed instructions in KB 2059581
Running CHKDSK
Disabled non-necessary services
Removed AV
Disabled Windows FW
Uninstall / re-install Converter
Verified account privileges (admin)
The OS and apps work fine on that PC. Nothing to complain about. Also converted another XP box without a hitch earlier.
Any ideas? Thank you much.
