Installing Physical Windows 7 as a Virtual Machine
Posted: 28. Feb 2014, 00:37
Hi Friends,
Here's my problem, For company rules I should have Windows 7 professional 64 bits on my computer :'(, but the own of my my machine is a Debian 7.1 whezzy (64 bits).
I was trying to make a Virtual Machine from my physical partition of Windows on my debian.
First of all:
I made:
Then create the virtual machine with IO Apic enable and RAM grater than 1024.
Then when system is starting for first time it needs the installation cd for repair, then of it It should start normaly, but here's the problem I have a blue screen (attached pic).
