Re: suggestions about vm guest settings for old host...
From the log in your other topic viewtopic.php?p=537785#p537785 the VM now has two processors and 5GB RAM:
Two processors in a Windows VM is usually OK. The host PC CPU is a 4-core non-hyperthreaded, so don't put more processors in the VM.
7.0 is having bugs still being found, with graphics and seizing issues. You could try the test builds and development snapshots. Save the installer until you update again later. You'll need it if your host's MSI installation database has problems (they do) and the installer will not be available for download after the next test build gets released, which could happen anytime. Also note the special instructions for Windows 10 & 11 hosts.
RAM is tight on this PC. Can you get more? Otherwise, lower VM RAM to 4GB and make sure the VM is started right away after booting the host.Host CPU status:
00:00:10.800215 CPUM: Logical host processors: 4 present, 4 max, 4 online, online mask: 000000000000000f

Re: suggestions about vm guest settings for old host...
hi Scott and thxs again
you suggest the test builds or the development?
is there an easy way to simply reduce the vm's ram from 5 to 4 gb or have i to create a new vm?
and about:
"make sure the VM is started right away after booting the host."..:
you mean that is better just after starting the pc and booting in my win 10 host the very next thing
is better to start the vm win 11 guest...am i wrong?
and all the other settings of the win 11 guest vm is better to leave them as they are in default by vb creating wizard?
thxs so much indeed
cheers

I don't know. Try one, then the other.
Yes, go to the VM's System settings, Motherboard tab, Base Memory slider.
Yes.
