  1. Bare Minimum Win 10 VM


    I have a proxmox machine and want to run BlueIris. As BI only runs on windows, I will need a Windows VM. I want this to be as efficient as possible as my machine is not overly beefy and I don't want it to kick out a little extra heat as possible (Fans keep it around 27-32C on average).

    Is there a streamlined version of Windows? Or is it a case of turning off features, etc. and if so what is everything I can disable?

    Win 10 BSOD after reducing number of CPUs

    • Win 10 x64 running in VMware Fusion VM on MacBook Pro w/ 6 physical cores & HT.
    • When VM is configured with 5+ CPUs, Windows runs fine.
    • When VM is configured with 4 or fewer, BSOD INVALID SYSTEM CONFIG INFO
      • WINLOAD.EFI missing or corrupted
      • Attempt to repair using ISO image fails
    OS X 10.15.4, VMware Fusion Pro 11.5.3

    Win 10 Enterprise

    Version 1703

    Build 15063.2108

    Any suggestions appreciated, as I need to move this VM to another HW config with fewer physical CPUs.

    Thanks!

    Win 7 Installation with VM Ware

    I have VM ware installed on my Win 10 PC and within VM Ware I installed Win 7 using an unused license. I am about to reformat my entire SSD and reinstall Win 10 and everything else that I have on PC. Do I have to uninstall Win 7 in the VM ware setup
    or do anything special so that I can reinstall Win 7 in the virtual machine?
