Can't properly install Windows 10 on my laptop.

Post by zupanic »

I launch the Virtual Machine, it runs as if there were 4 Crysis games full graphics running in the background even though I'm trying to install Windows 10. Then it loads forever at 300 seconds per frame, I get a blue screen and a Guru meditation error message. What's going on? Thanks in advance.

My guess is that hardware virtualization is not available. In the icons below the vm window, do you see a green turtle where I have a white V on a blue background?

Bill called it.

Hyper-V is enabled and needs to be disabled. See HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active). (The new test builds might have a fix for this problem. If you try a test build and it works, report here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=90853, and save the installer file.)
