Re: Creating a Windows 7 VM from a Physical Partition

Make sure that the Disk/Partition which has Windows installed should not be mounted on the Linux Host. If it is, unmount it.

 

If that doesn't work, proceed below.

 

Few things which I noticed:

 

2013-02-01T06:41:37.159-08:00| vcpu-0| I120+ A fault has occurred causing a virtual CPU to enter the shutdown state. If this fault had occurred outside of a virtual machine, it would have caused the physical machine to restart. The shutdown state can be reached by incorrectly configuring the virtual machine, a bug in the guest operating system, or a problem in VMware Workstation.---------------------------------------

2013-02-01T06:41:39.612-08:00| vcpu-0| I120: CPU reset: hard (mode 2)

2013-02-01T06:41:39.612-08:00| vmx| I120: Stopping VCPU threads...

 

Disable any CPU power saving or throttling features like SpeedStep, CoolnQuiet, etc. You will find the settings to disable it in the BIOS. Some CPUs have applications which install on the OS. Remove/Disable those as well.

2013-02-01T06:41:15.049-08:00| vmx| I120+ You are using a SCSI physical disk. SCSI physical disk dual-boot performance is poor. The installed operating system might not boot correctly in the VM. However, SCSI physical disks operate normally if used exclusively within the VM.

 

Try using IDE disk type for the VM.
