bank6 not a vmware boot bank no hypervisor found

Hi All,

 

I have installed latest (as of today) ESX 5.1 on a 32 Gb SSD.

I have along with that a SSD Raid with a windows 7 OS. I just choose the disk from which I want to boot pressing F11 at startup, and it worked fine so far, but vmware ESX is creating a lot of FAT Partitions. I deleted the drive letter from windows disk management (and I didn't made anything else), as I wanted to get rid of the 3 drives that I don't (and shouldn't) want to use.


After I tried to boot on the vmware SSD, it shows me an error:

bank6 not a vmware boot bank

no hypervisor found

 

And I had to reinstall my system... I didn't had that much stuff yet on it, but still this is painful... I don't know why if I remove the FAT letter drive under windows it screws my VMWare installation...

 

I did this twice just to be sure.

 

Any idea why this is happening and what can I do ?
