Windows 2003 R2 Migration Issues - Dynamic Disk?

Hey everyone,

I'm having issues migrating one of our Windows 2003 R2 servers over to the VM environment. I believe the problem to be that Windows shows the disk as a Dynamic Disk. I'm using Clonezilla to clone the disk over to the VM that I setup. There's only one 160 GB disk. It is partitioned into (C 30GB and D 120GB). Clonezilla shows everything being moved over like it should (moves over both partitions).

When I boot into Windows, I get the blue screen of death (tells me to check for hard drive corruption). I then use Hiren's boot cd to boot into Mini-XP mode. Interesting, none of the drives show up. I tried running some of the other random programs on there but can't seem to figure out what my next step should be.

The only difference between this machine and other others that i've done is Windows shows the disk as Dynamic. I've read that you need to convert it back to a basic disk which i'm hoping there is another way to handle this?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
