Question Is there some software that you could recommend to virtualizes this nt4 system I its an old I'm server (Cant be upgraded as the software runs on nt4 only!) as we don't have the funds The server has an ibm raid card setup as raid 5 Its an old p3 system with 1gb memory Any help or links or help on converting this would be appreciated, as the hardware supports is now very high The system has some disc corruption but check disk doesn't finish even when left to run for 1 week! So its in a bad state What would you recommend to virtualise the system?
