In the past years back, we would install the driver controller (Raid/HP/Dell etc) into the 2000/2003 vm, then ghost it from VM to physical. Usually this got us at least into booting and then re-detected all the new hardware , several reboots later we were okay (drivers loading, rebooting etc). if any issues you just turn the vm back on , having the drivers loaded doesn't matter.
Platespin comes to mind ... for p2v and v2p ... Symantec made a similar product in the early days I don't know if it still exists. I think its built into Backup Exec today. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
