CompTIA Server+ SK0-005 Practice Question

During a server-consolidation project, a systems administrator uses a physical-to-virtual (P2V) utility to migrate a legacy Windows Server 2012 R2 file server from aging hardware into a new VMware vSphere cluster. The conversion reports success, but on first power-on the virtual machine crashes almost immediately with a blue screen that displays:

STOP 0x0000007B - INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE

No additional configuration changes were made to the VM after the conversion completed. Which of the following is the MOST likely reason the operating system cannot boot?

  • The VM was configured with UEFI firmware even though the source server used legacy BIOS, causing Secure Boot to block the loader.

  • Dynamic hot-add memory was enabled, leaving the VM with less physical RAM than the operating system requires.

  • The P2V process changed the server's MAC address, preventing the OS from contacting a domain controller during startup.

  • The virtual SCSI controller selected during conversion (for example, VMware Paravirtual) is not supported by the storage drivers already present in the guest OS.
