Unable to obtain hardware information for the selected machine.

Hello,

I am using VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 5.1 in order to convert an old VMware Server 2 machine for ESXi 5.5

I clicked the "Convert machine" button, selected "VMware Workstation or other VMware machine" as source type.

As virtual machine file I selected the VMX file.

Clicking next, I get the "Unable to obtain hardware information for the selected machine" error.

I am using 7SP1 64bit, no firewall nor antivirus.

Thank you,

Francesco
