Hi all,
I have a client that STILL uses his Windows 98 (!!) Accounting system and needs to close it up before he switches to (I convinced him) to Quickbooks 2015. All that said, on his windows 98 machine that was dying I created a ghost image using Ghost 11.5. Now I've got this image I've promised him I'd be able to port over to virtualbox or vmware so he can run it within Windows 7. Problem is that regardless of the syntax I've googled exhaustively and checked Symantec's knowledge base it doesn't work to convert the image over.
I'm thinking of maybe ghosting his image to another drive and using disk2vhd. I've installed vmware Vcenter converter as well but it doesn't work with Ghost images.
Does anybody here know of a utility I can use to convert from a .GHO image -> .VMDK ? Or have any useful suggestions.
Anything would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
