      Its a problem with your particular driver version.

      Try using an earlier or later version.

        Thx for the quick response.

        I’ve tried drivers from 9.9 down to 9.5 and installed the modded 9.11 for desktop gfx.

        All the same problem.

        Normaly i don’t need the ATI driver. I just want the high res. of 1920×1080. But with the standard-vga-driver max. res. is 1400×1050.

        Did anybody know how to get the widescreen resolutions with standard vga dirver?

        Thanks in advance.

          Hmmm

          I have a 3650 IIRC, and run at 1680×1050 without a problem.

          Are you on a laptop or a desktop?

            Thx for your response.

            I’am on a laptop (Dell XPS16).

            Last thing i’ve tried was

            1. Starting hyper-v on demand (sc config hvboot start= demand)
            2. Reboot
            3. Install ATI driver
            4. Reboot (Gfx fine)
            5. Starting Hyper-V (net start hvboot)
            6. BSoD 🙁

            Also i tried to force resolution by registry (Default.XResolution / YResolution) -> Take no affect.

            Sorry what’s “IIRC”?

              OK, Are you using the mobility modder driver, or do you not need it?

                  :
                  I’ve modded the ATI 9.11 driver version with the mobility modder and get the same result (Hyper-V + ATI Driver = BSoD)
                  Which driver do you use?

                  Btw.
                  Did anybody know if there is an “modded” standard-vga-driver to support 1920×1080 on Server 2008R2?

                  Thanks in advance

                    Hmm

                    I’m using driver 8.650.0.0, and Hyper V and games work fine.

                    I would suggest trying this driver?

                      Hi,

                      i’ve tried your driver version. No affect.

                      Looks like i have to use the uncomfortable resolution 🙁

                        My theory is that the old driver is still on there somehow.

                        Make sure you remove it completely from device manager, and selecting to delete driver files.

                          Th edriver could not be there. I’ve installed the W2K8R2 into an VHD and made a backup after clean install. All tests are made on the clean install.

                            So you have a low resolution by default? It seems odd that it is always the same file.

                            What triggers the crash exactly? Is it reproducible?

                            What is the name of the exception you get when it bluescreens?

                                I can confirm that this an issue here as well.

                                I have the same scenario w/ two different core i7 laptops.. one ATI the other Nvidia graphics. Whenver hyper-v role is enabled w/ graphics driver installed; blue screen.

                                Upon further research I found this post over at Virtual PC Guy’s blog… and it doesnt look good for those of us with newer laptops with Core i7: http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2009/11/16/understanding-high-end-video-performance-issues-with-hyper-v.aspx

                                If anyone has any suggestions to workarounds for this, it’d be greatly appreciated!

                                  I’m using 1680×1050 using the latest Catalyst drivers, and haven’t run into any problems, although performance does seem worse than it did on 7.
