Is it possible to convert an existsing XP mode installation into VMWare player 4.0?
I have been using XP mode that came with my windows 7 for quite a while but wanted to move it over to VMware player for performance reasons. I have done quite a bit of setup and installation of software over the time on the and realy would like to avoid having to reinstall everything from scratch.
I tried the "Import Windows XP Mode VM" option from the file menu but that created a brand new VM without any of my software installed.
I have also tried to use "vCenter Converter Standalone" to convert the VM but the converted VM instisted that I reactivate windows. I tried the key in the xp mode directory I also tried a fully fledged XP key but both failed to reactivet it.
Any suggestions would be appeciated.
Regards
Neil
