Robert:

Thanks a bunch! But now I'm really out of my depth (before I was just on the
edge). Is there any possibility this could be made to work?

Does this not happen with a Vista host? I just did a quick search but did not
find anything.

I just don't know, it's a tough one. My guess is not unless it's something
else that is getting in the way and whatever that is if it can be disabled.

I doubt it happens, but I'll let you know. SCSI isn't that common on desktop
Virtual Server installs -- unless you need large disks...

Just checked, Virtual Server doesn't have that problem on Vista.

Also, it doesn't matter the size of the SCSI disk or if it's fixed or
dynamic on Windows 7, it always fails.
