Hello

[Leigh1974]

Hello, Came across this site yesterday after a link was published in a book ‘Microsoft SharePoint 2010 – Building Solutions for SharePoint 2010’ by Sahil Malik.

Straight away I trashed my new Laptop runing Windows 7 to install Server 2008R2. In no time at all I had it up and running. Then I added the Hyper-V role and it all when down hill them.

After reinstalling a couple more times for testing got Hyper-V working fine and worked out that it was the Nvida Driver for NVS 3100 which killed it. Both the driver and hyper-v services dont like worknig together.

So I’m left to working out do I want a laptop with hyper-v withoou the graphics. Or I server workstation with the grahics but without hyper-v?

I will have a look on your forum to see if I can find some help.

PS. When I had server 2008R2 it installed on my new HP Elitebook 8440 with its i7 and 8G of memory. It look good and performed well… Unto i set up hyper-v that was.

Thanks

Hello Leigh,

Welcome at the forums! 🙂 If you search the forum you will find many topics about Hyper-V in combination with (graphics) system performance.

As far as I followed these topics, the following two workarounds are possible:

• Use a Hyper-V alternative like Sun Virtualbox, VMware Workstation/Player, Microsoft Virtual PC, …
• [localurl=viewtopic.php?p=4217#p4217:p84pkzzg]Temporarily disable Hyper-V[/localurl:p84pkzzg]

Anyway, see you around!
