Now before the final shutdown and migration of the Windows virtual disk you have to go to microsofts web site and down load the the Tool that Relaxes the IDE Drive Checks. Install it to the Windows guest and then run it. After that it can be converted to VBox format. A given install is only tied to the hardware on Windows XP and Up. Although you can migrate that license to the Vbox install :-). You can't just have two of the same instances under the same license running. John
