VHD to VMDK for ESXI 4.1 OS

I am sorry if I am repeating a previous question. I had 3 virtual machines on Hyper V on Windows 2008. I have about 2 vhd files per virtual machine. The biggest is a 78gb one. Now I have your converter, I know these files are pre-allocated files, so the vmdk should be pre-allocated as well or should I choose the ESXI Server option?

I tried the growable one but when I ran it on Vmware sphere client it says it didn't recognize the file. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes. Pre-allocated.

What EXACTLY you did and what EXACTLY did not work?
