Instead, choose the option to Edit virtual machine settings > Hardware tab > CD/DVD (IDE) > Use ISO image file > browse to and select the ATI ISO > check the Connect at Power On box > OK.

In the present case, my first step was to start VMware Player, select the WinXP VM, and don’t start the VM. Another post has information on a similar technique in VirtualBox.Īs detailed in the earlier post, the interloper technique was not highly complicated. In both cases, I was using VMware Workstation Player (referred to here, more simply, as VMware Player). The present post applies that technique to the WinXP that I wanted to convert from virtual to physical (V2P) form. In other words, I had an ATI ISO that already combined the basic ATI software as well as its Plus Pack, and I wanted the simplicity of running that ISO within the VM, to capture the state of the WinXP installation without being part of that installation – much as I would do if I used Rufus to create a bootable USB containing that ATI ISO, and then booted that USB to capture a physical Windows installation while the latter was not running.Ī previous post describes how I used a Lubuntu ISO as this sort of interloper within an Ubuntu VM, to run commands to clone and image that Ubuntu installation when it was not running. In part, I was curious and in part I didn’t want the hassle of installing ATI and then its Plus Pack, nor the clutter of that extra software in the WinXP installation that I was trying to capture in a drive image. They were not external solutions, as where a Windows program of some sort would treat the entire VM as the object of a conversion procedure, comparable to the conversion of a video file from one format to another.įor present purposes, I was interested in the latter (bootable ISO/USB) approach. In the language of another post, both of these were internal solutions – that is, they ran within the VM. Similar options also existed within the VM world.

I could install it into that system and then run it in WinXP or I could boot it from a USB drive and use it to capture the state of the WinXP installation when the latter was not running. If the WinXP installation had been on a physical system, there would have been two ways to run ATI.

I hoped that its ability to capture and restore essential drivers would produce a bootable physical installation. To assist in this, I wanted to run Acronis True Image (ATI) 2011 Plus Pack. As described in another post, I wanted to convert a Windows XP virtual machine (VM) to physical form.
