Hello,

I'm going to convert my machine into a VM. When I use the V2V converter and choose which volume(s) to convert, I found 1 volume is not shown in the list.

I have C D F G drive in my machine and only C D F are shown while G is missed.

May I know any method to solve it?

G is not a regular volume and is not displayed, therefore. Is it possible to use it as a simple volume?

I read this instruction and seems that data will be lost if change to simple volume.

There are both volumes with the same letter. Guess it is what "confuses" V2V Converter.
