Simple Newbie Question

[Adrian1000]

Hi There

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit machine. I would like to know if it is possible to download and install the converter software and then convert this one local machine.

To clarify, I would like to create the VM of the same physical machine that the converter software/process would be running.

If this is possible, would it matter If I had VMware vSphere Client  5.0 on the machine?

Many thanks in advance.

Regards

Adrian

Basically this should work (the vSphere Client doesn't matter in this case). However, may need a retail Windows license to be able to re-activate Windows once converted. If you currently have a hardware dependent OEM version, the license key may not be accepted in the converted VM.

Hi André

Many thanks indeed for your prompt response. Most helpful.

I have a retail box  version, so I should be OK.

Many thanks again for your helpful reply.
