We have created a vhd with disk2vhd for one of our Win7Pro Pc's that is being decommisionned because we will need occasional archival access to a legacy app(not upgradeable) that runs on it. an Azure VM seemed a reasonable solution
when trying to upload the vhd to our Azure proofofconcept trial we get the following failure..
