Is this something that EasyBCD can help me with? I tried running it and pointing to the VHD file, but it didn't seem to make any changes and/or difference. My error in Hyper-V is ' A disk read error occurred. Windows references disks in the boot configuration database (BCD) by disk signature, so when that happens Windows booted in a VM will fail to locate the boot disk. If you do so, Windows will assign the VHD a new disk signature to avoid a collision with the signature of the VHD’s source disk. Note: do not attach to VHDs on the same system on which you created them if you plan on booting from them. Re: Defrag Tools 163 - Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) - Sysinternals Disk2VHD Allen, I could not update Windows 8 to 8.1 or 8.1 to 10 or even do the Insider previews when booting to. I know that Disk2vhd does not support creating an image of a system, and then running that VM on the exact same system/partition, but I thought EasyBCD would be able to fix that. In order to take an image of the my system, I used the SysInternals Disk2vhd utility to create a virtual disk (*.vhd) of my system. Compared to traditional VHD, VHDX has several improvements, including a special. It creates VHD (virtual hard disk) for physical disk so that it can be used in Microsoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines. I want to run my Windows 7 in a VM on the Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V. NOTE: VHDX is a new disk format that was introduced in Windows Server 2012. Disk2vhd is the disk-to-VHD converter provided by Microsoft Sysinsternals group to create virtual hard disk images of partitions located on physical hardware. I was running Windows 7 圆4 on my system, and needed to install Windows Server 2008 R2.
