Mount VHD at Boot in Windows Server 2008 R2
I need a way to attach a VHD at boot in Windows Server 2008 R2. I tried to accomplish this task by creating a diskpart script that attached the vdisk at boot, which would work if it were not for the fact that it triggers UAC when I call on diskpart to mount the image. What is the point of auto mounting a VHD at boot if I have to click Yes to accept the UAC? Is there some other way of mounting VHD images at boot in Windows Server 2008 R2?

So, just to let everyone know I found a free software solution that allows mouting VHDs automatically at boot. The tool is called Gizmo Manager. Check it out @ http://arainia.com/software/gizmo/

Try VHD Attach:
If so desired you can also use this program to attach various virtual disks upon system start-up. It is your choice whether this will be done in full-access or read-only mode.
