Situation

A blue screen of death appears on the target machine during a migration to a physical machine. The blue screen of death, 0x7B, occurs during the migration stage "Configure Operating System" and happens at the second reboot of the target.

Resolution

4. Upload the drivers using PlateSpin Driver Manager. 
5. Retry the migration.
