A disk read error occurred

Post by johncassell »

Hi all, hope someone can help me with this please.

I have a VHD of a Windows Small Business Server 2003 32-Bit machine (created using Disk2VHD). The VHD is stored on an external hard drive. I am using VirtualBox 4.3.10 r93012 on a Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit machine.

When I try to boot the VHD all I get is 'A disk read error has occurred. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart'.

I've searched the internet for this error but all solutions I've found don't seem to apply to me. Not sure what other information to tell you that would be relevant (other than list every setting!)

Thanks in advance for any replies.

John
