Written By Tami Sutcliffe (Super Administrator)

Updated at April 13th, 2022

To ensure that the BCD database and /Boot files exist when virtualizing systems with an EISA partition, perform the following steps on the protected system:

1. Open a CMD prompt with Run As Administrator

2. mkdir c:\boot

3. bcdedit /export c:\boot\bcd

4.Take an immediate snapshot of the system and test virtualization to verify Windows will now boot.
