Once again something useful from GAOD:

Giveaway of the Day - Paragon Virtualization Manager 2009 Personal

A powerful tool for system migration! Paragon Virtualization Manager is a powerful tool to help you easily migrate a Windows-based computer to a virtual environment (P2V) of a major virtualization software vendor, regardless of how or where the computer is being backed up.

It also makes a crippled system, previously transferred to virtual hardware by a third party tool, 100% bootable.

More info and download here.

As usual, this free download is valid until today 12PM PDT (tomorrow 3AM ETD, 7AM UTC). You have to download and extract the installation packet as well as register to get the free serial before this deadline.

I used to visit GAOTD daily. I do not need to anymore. Kari always calls out the good ones.

There are so many variations of this from Paragon - I have lost track.
They sent me the Corporate r2 beta version to test a few days ago.
Can't get the damn thing to install.

This Personal version on offer today is a great piece of software. As usual , Paragon let you keep it so you can use it later. As long as you run the the Self Extracting exe today - it deposits the actual .msi installer wherever you choose - you can use the .msi again.

Sadly - you don't get the WinPE boot disc.

If you have one the Drive Backup Pro products, or the PM Pro ( not the SE versions) - you can go to your account at Paragon and download it.

However, I think the DB9Pro giveaway recently was not an SE version - you can't get the WINPE disc with that - but ( I think) on the linux/dos boot disc you run off - there is the Restore o/s to New Hardware, and Adjust o/s to Boot on New Hardware feature.

Confused ? Try beta testing . LOL

You have to get the serial today, too. Save the .msi-packet and serial, you can then install it when and as often as you like. But you have to get the serial today!

You can also install it on as many machines as you like - according to Paragon.

That is news to me. Nice! I thought also the registration must be done during the time period given.

I like Paragon's way to deal with these GAOD-goodies. As long as you extract the msi installation packet and get the serial, you can backup it and install it when needed.
