Physical to virtual (P2V) Windows 2003 64-bit with fix-vmscsi LSI

Last Updated: 12/30/10

Here is an updated version of the fix-vmscsi that has a 64-bit LSI SCSI driver for Windows Server 2003 64-bit. This has been tested and was successful.

I downloaded fix-vmscsi from here: http://www.vmwareinfo.com/2008/10/extending-bartpe-fix-vmscsi-some-more.html

Then I modified it to work for 64-bit Windows Server 2003 with the LSI Vmware SCSI controller. We used Acronis Backup and Recovery 11 with Universal restore, but we will had a blue screen stop error 0x0000007b (0x7b). We could have also probably used VMware converter to do this P2V, but we already had the Acronis image available. See download file below.

Note: this download is a plugin for BartPE and will not work by itself. You will also need a Windows server 2003 CD for bartPE to use as a source disk, and this plugin, to build a bootable disk to allow P2V process to go smoothly.
