I found the issue. Apparently someone had switched the OSDPreserveDriveLetter 
to True in the TS, and the OS volume was set to T. After flipping the variable 
back to False and seeing that the OS was now on the C: drive, MBR2GPT is 
working flawlessly.

Good that I found the issue, but weird that a system volume drive letter other 
than C would cause such an odd problem.

Thank you,
Richard Poole

Subject: [mssms] MBR2GPT question

Hey everyone,

I’ve been playing around with MBR2GPT on a Win10 1703 build and keep running 
into a strange issue. No matter if I run it from the OS with /allowFullOS or 
within WinPE, and change the BIOS over to UEFI, upon booting into Windows I get 
a black screen. Mouse cursor shows up when I move it, and promptly disappears. 
I’ve tried on a laptop and two desktops, with various displays, hit Win+P+down 
arrow to try and switch displays, all experienced the same issue.

Anyone else seen this problem by chance?

Thanks,
Richard Poole
