VMWare Converter - VSS cannot be stored because there is not enough space on source volume

Hey guys,

 

This question probably been asked a few times and I probably did read them all but none provided an answer that could fix the problem I have. I'm trying to virtualize a physical machine. That machine has 2 partitions with Windows 7 on it. One has the system reserved partition with the boot information and the other (C drive) has the OS on it. I don't seem to be able to add space to the system drive (option greyed out) even if I have unallocated space. I also tried to convert the machine without the sys partition thinking I could just create if afterwards but that provided to be undoable so far (tried quite a couple things following multiple threads).

 

So, how can you convert a machine with all the required partitions knowing that VSS seems to require more space than is available on the sys partition?

 

Results:

 

Fails at 1% with "Failed: The VSS snapshots cannot be stored because there is not enough space on the source volumes or because the source machine does not have any NTFS volumes. Error code: 2147754783 (0x8004231F).   <-- Note here that the 2 partitions are in NTFS not FAT.
