Anyone done it? Pre me someone made the decision to purchase a cashless catering system that runs from a unbranded, single SATA hard disk Windows 7 computer with no backup facility. To add insult to injury the catering manager uses the machine as her 'everyday machine' - workgroup computer with local accounts, internet access email MS office, basically I can't wait for it to go wrong.

I'm thinking I'll P2V this machine, throw it on one of my Hyper-V servers and then rebuild the machine as a Windows 8.1 domain computer for the catering manager to use - can anyone see any issues with P2V'ing a windows 7 machine for hyper-V? One of those "yeah I've done it just go for it/don't do it" situations.

That's the answer I was looking for! Using Disk2VHD?
