Moving a VM from ESX to Hyper-V?

Oh, sorry, I forgot about this thread. When Ive used it, Ive converted the Vmware VM to HyperV, then after booting up in HyperV, Ive uninstalled the vmware tools, rebooted, then installed the hyperv tools. I guess you could uninstall the vm tools before converting too.
