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.
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.
Regards.
