It just says that the .vhd File is incompatible with Workstation Version xx.x. It does this no matter what hardware version you select on screen 2 of the wizard. I can say however, that it worked when I was using Version 9. I am currently trying StarWind V2V image converter and will report my results.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019446845209961050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7732432868969196646.post-79953020669472525942015-12-17T09:57:25.958-05:002015-12-17T09:57:25.958-05:00Not sure without viewing a screenshot of what you ...Not sure without viewing a screenshot of what you are seeing, but these options are basic and I would suppose they would be available for all versions.

I did run into one minor issue with this technique where VMware Workstation complained that the CD-ROM IDE device was configured as a slave with no master. I changed the IDE positions from 1 to 0, and the system booted up just fine.
