Have you tried simply creating a new VM using the VHD('s) that came from the
R2 server (instead of importing)?

 

At the very least, a little googling suggests that the integration services
(from R2) should removed and then re-installed from the non-R2 server.  But
if the hardware is available, I'd just install the free Hyper-V R2 on said
hardware to get things up and running.

I can't find anything about this with Google. If needed, can I do a standing
upgrade of a production server from Windows 2008 to R2 without causing a
bunch of issues, I could always do that this evening after hours.

I'm having trouble importing a VM created and exported on a machine running
2008R2 to a machine running 2008. Do I need to upgrade Hyper-V manager on
the 2008 machine or something? Of course this is a matter of utmost urgency.
