Burn the ISO to cd (or run it from a virtual drive or from within a virtual machine.) Here are the 3 ways to run VMWare Converter. 1. Autostarting the CD from a drive (virtual or real) starts the 'no-install' hot cloning option. The currently istalled OS, or a networked OS can be cloned this way. An enterprise licence is required to 'no-install' hot clone the current OS, but it's possible to hot-clone a networked machine without one. 2. You can explore the CD and install VMware Converter onto the current OS and then hot-clone it. 3. You can boot up a machine from the CD (or virtual machine from ISO) and it boots into a WinPE environment and you can cold-clone the OS. The third option is probably the easiest and cleanest.
