Mount a .VHD file in Windows 7 and 2008 R2

In one of my earlier blog post here I went through an easy way to convert a physical machine to VHD without downtime that can be attached to a Virtual Machine running on Virtual PC or Hyper-V. Today we will see how we can mount or attach the same VHD on a system running Windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2 without any virtualization software.

First open Disk Management by right clicking on computer and selecting manage or type diskmgmt.msc in run window or command prompt or powershell.
