    Configuration; Windows 11 ENT in virtual machine only starts with the bootx64.efi


    The configuration for the Windows 11 enterprise is hosted in a large HP Z620. The server cpu is similar to I7 but slightly different because it has 32 vCPUs and 96 GiG RAM both physical CPUs are octo'sThe machine is great for hosting virtual machines and WIndows 11 runs with a couple of reg fixes. I have a couple of additional Windows 11 machines Pro that have no problem running in the virtual environment but the Win 11 ENT always starts in the Linux kernel and will only start with the following command:fs0:\efi\boot\bootx64.efi It requires a manual intervention on every start.

    Why would windows 10 EFI installer not recognising keys?

    I bought a gigabyte board to find it boots to EFI console.

    No matter the helpful MS
    TechNet
    provided instruction enough on how to install my OEM copy of Windows 10 64.

    One glaring problem I can type the following into the console as directed by MS TechNet BUT/HOWEVER/WOULD YOU BELIEVE when the BOOTX64.EFI "runs" it prompts with "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" and then IGNORES the keyboard
    - result my machine never boots but just falls back into the console.

    So, behaviour is the raw motherboard boots to EFI, recognises the usb keyboard enough to allow me to enter the commands above but ignores keyboard when "\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI" is run.

    Is this a problem with the \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI? Why would it not accept keys from the same keyboard that was used to run it and from the same shell that run it?

    As you can imagine it is a little frustrating because the OEM version is not free.

    Any useful suggestions appreciated.

    Cheers,

    B

    Could not locate efi boot bootx64.efi error

    Hi there, I have installed windows 10 pro on a ssd nvme m.2 and I have used it for few weeks without any problem(it is a win to go with an adapter for USB). After an windows update I got this error: ,,could not locate efi boot bootx64.efi'' and cannot use it anymore. I want to mention that the Secure Boot is disabled. The ssd was running perfectly fine before that update and the windows is activated. I have attached a picture.

    Please help me.

    Thank you!!
