Blue screen after conversion with VM converter stand alone 6.2

Using VM converter stand alone 6.2.
Converted Windows guest blue screens on startup:

Inaccessible Boot Disk

Most suggested solutions do not fix the blue screen: VMware Knowledge Base

  • Windows repair fails
  • Regedit fails
  • Change of Virtual Disk fails

Suggestions here also do not fix the blue screen: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/335073

This change did for me:

New Guest VM > EDIT Settings > SCSI Controller 0 > LSI Logic SAS

That was the type of SCSI controller of the source machine but VM converter 6.2 did not replicate that setting to the cloned VM, even using the Reconfigure VM option afterwards.
