Dear Alex: Thanks for your words. Let me clarify some points: a VM uses two disks , I moved and converted both. b Hardware changed ?... yes it has, (I wanted to share a picture but my mail is dismissed with a "no content allowed" message). Both platforms offer different hardware to guests so hardware, naturally will change when moving between platforms. c Regarding relevant services ... First I noticed , is that XAMP platform was not running. After cheking I confirmed that new guest didnt recognized network card, I think it was due to drivers difference. (I had to install new driver). Since some services are attached to listen to some interfaces / ips , those services did not start at startup. So.... After looking at network drive options I can confirm that can not set exactly same driver. Conclusion: hard disk and network card are some of the devices should be same in order to have a transparent migration. Since (I think) it is not possible , it will be hard to smoothly complete this migration. Hope to hear your comments about this. Leandro.
