I'm not a guru for that OS, but I used the backup software (maybe you have to install it from the media, im most cases it is not installed by default) to make a backup onto a network drive. Then I bootet into a new VMware machine and used the mare metal restore functionality. Booting was OK but I had to adjust some other settings, don't remember the details. The help system gives some advice. Peter
