Moving Windows Server 2008 Image from Hyper-V to Windows 7 Virtual PC

Converting between virtual and physical machines as well as different versions of virtual platform can introduce all kinds of headaches, primarily as a result of the HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer).

I simply wanted to move a Hyper-V image to Virtual PC or Windows 7 and found the image wouldn't boot. Some quick research cam up with a lot of cans and can'ts; e.g. http://blogs.technet.com/b/jhoward/archive/2008/02/28/are-vhds-compatible-between-hyper-v-and-virtual-server-and-virtual-pc.aspx while Virtual PC Guy provided some more details: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2004/12/16/316643.aspx

However, a quick and easy approach if your image happens to be Windows Server 2008 R2 is to simple set the boot flag to automatically detect the HAL on bot via MSCONFIG:

Incredibly helpful and useful to know.

Laurie Santos - A monkey economy as irrational as ours (TED)

I can't help but find behavioural psychology to be both frightening and fascinating... Very similar to a previous TED talk I've seen on decision making...
