Hyper-V VM not reaching OS 'Logon' screen

i trying migrate vm vmware hyper-v.

so far have done following (seemingly successfully):

• prepare vmware vm conversion hyper-v format (vhd) within vmware workstation 8.0 environment following steps guide: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en/winserverhyperv/thread/ef8c12f7-c45d-442e-9a30-c43cd87df3b3 (i.e. remove vm tools, add new ide hard disk…)
• use vmdk2vhd application convert individual vmdk files vhd ones
• create new vm in hyper-v exporting in 3 newly converted vhd files

at point have checked settings , powered on vm in hyper-v find although windows begins load expected manages reach screen prior login screen saying either of following messages:

“windows starting up…”

“the active directory rebuilding indices… please wait”

to knowledge, albeit limited in area, vm should present me login screen since appears in vmware. if start vm in safe mode can login not desired affect. below details of vm:

operating system: windows server 2003(enterprise edition) x64
processors: 2
ram: 2048mb
hard disks: 3 (initially 3 scsi on vmware vm per advice online have made boot drive ide hyper-v)
cd-rom/dvd drive: yes (ide)

can in community shed light on issue? i’ve spent time , come far seem have hit brick wall…

did boot vm on vmware workstation after removed tools , set boot device ide?

also, can run p2v tolls within vm, such disk2vhd , create vhd output way.

and, sounds dc multiple disks, want 3 disks on ide controllers.  (the scsi bus not come early, if there ad databases or not on these drives ad try come before disks ready).
