Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / August 2007How to convert Virtual PC 7 for Mac Image to Virtual PC for Windows????
I would like convert an existing VPC7 for Mac image to VPC2004 for Windows (or another version or VMWARE). Is it possible?. Thanks!. > I would like convert an existing VPC7 for Mac image to VPC2004 for > Windows (or another version or VMWARE). Is it possible?. It is possible but not allowed with the Windows licensed for use with VPC. If you bought your own Windows license (;) or you have an MSDN/volume license in your VPC for Mac VM, Parallels and VMware each have a migration utility for this. Parallels utility is called Transporter. VMware's is called Converter. I refer you to each of those respective companies to get further details. > > I would like convert an existing VPC7 for Mac image to VPC2004 for > > Windows (or another version or VMWARE).

I'm not sure if either of those convert a Mac Virtual PC drive to a Windows Virtual PC drive. You probably better off simply transferring your own files (Word documents, etc.) using a CD orUSB drive. That way you can install a fresh version of Windows and the applications rather than transferring a hard drive that is already having possible problems, corruptions and other nasties.

I'll take a small Windows 98 drive from VPC to work tomorrow and give it a shot and let you know how it goes.

It works, but there are hardware deltas. Aside from licensing issues, it's not something you'd want to move back and forth from. I was able to migrate my Windows 98SE from VPC 7.02 to VPC 2007 just fine.

Finally, I created a new VPC2007 virtual machine with the old vhd file and works fine. Thanks to yours suggestions!!!. |
