VM ware - creating ISO image
Posted on 2013-01-05
My pc is a Lennovo M72e and I have just downloaded VM ware trial version. I want to create a VM machine so that I could replicate what I have on my C drive. My OS is win 7 prof 64 bit. But how do I create an ISO image of my OS. My win 7 OS came with the machine and I have 2 recovery disks. FYI, my pc is for home and a work from home outfit, use only, Thank u.

You can use VMWare converter to convert your existing machine into a virtual machine. Download (free) available here: http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/overview.html
What do you mean exactly by 'replicate'? You want to run your Lenovo PC somewhere else in a VMWare player?

Normally, I would suggest P2V'ing (using VMware Converter Standalone), but it's more than likely your Win7 OS is OEM (i.e. tied to your PC) so you won't be able to activate & is against MS licensing. What you should do is create a new Win7 VM using a different Windows license then configure the VM as your PC is.
