Hi Shamil Yep, that's a show stopper. The free VMware Server will allow up to two CPUs and 64-bit but only if the host is equal or larger. I'm not aware of any other brand of VM that will simulate multiple CPUs or cores on a host with less resources. /gustav >>> Salakhetdinov Shamil <mcp2004 at mail.ru> 30-11-2011 21:10 >>> 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. -- Shamil 28 ноября 2011, 14:53 от "Gustav Brock" <Gustav at cactus.dk>: > Hi Shamil et al > > Here is a free tool: > > http://www.starwindsoftware.com/converter > > to: > > <quote> > Convert VMDK to VHD and VHD to VMDK for free > > 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. > </quote> > > /gustav > > >>> Salakhetdinov Shamil <mcp2004 at mail.ru> 28-11-2011 11:19 >>> > Hello Mark -- > > Yes, that VMWare vSphere Hypervisor sounds promising. > Did you work with it and did it worked well as described in the VMWare ads? > > Also, the > > 2010 Information Worker Demonstration and Evaluation Virtual Machine (SP1) > http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=27417 > > is a Hyper-V image AFAUI.
