Hi Gustav at all,

I have got converted Hyper-V's VHD into VMDK using the tool Gustav recommended.
VMDK image is correct - I can set it as a second HDD to my test Win7 VM.
But I can't create 64-bit VM on 32-bit system - so this work have to be suspended now... 

Thank you.

> StarWind Converter is a downloadable V2V conversion tool for virtual machines. You can use it to convert VMDK to VHD files and VHD to VMDK as well as to IMG file, which is a native StarWind format. This is a very simple but useful file conversion tool that will convert virtual hard drive images from VMware's VMDK format into the Microsoft's VHD format. It is a sector by sector copy operation from one format to the other. It does not modify the source image and will leave it so you can continue to use it.
