Ok, here's a very short and to the point question. When trying to import a virtual PC 2004 Windows 2003 Server VM in VM Workstation 6.0.2 I'm getting an error 'unable to determine guest operating system'. Soo how to fix?

A:
From here:
Make sure that that the VM is not currently running in VMware Server.
Make sure that VMware Server does not have a lock on the VM’s files. You have have to stop all VMware Server Services and/or reboot the (VMWare) server.
Make sure you have appropriate permissions to the VM’s files.

This is a fairly generic error from VMware Converter so I would try the following:
Step 1. Make sure you are running the latest version of VMware Converter. Updates seem to come pretty often for this tool.
Step 2. Check the VMware Converter log file. More often than not you will find the source of your problem here.
