I have a Ryzen 9700x PC and run linux 90% of the time.
Sometimes I need to use windows and wanted to try using a VM with an extra graphics card.
Is it possible to connect a low powered GPU to my second PCIe slot and use it in a VM?
Just want a bit better performance when in the VM.
My PC only has on full x16 slot and 2 x1 slots.
Any decent x1 cards? I've heard of GT 710 1GB PCIE x 1.
I’m looking to set up a windows virtual machine on Linux with KVM. I’m wanting to try and squeeze out as much performance as possible, and don’t like all the bloat stuff anyway.
Back when I was on windows I heard tiny11 was a good alternative for those needs.
Is it worth it to use that iso instead of the official windows one?
Has anyone had this issue where you cannot turn off Hyper-V shown in the sysinf? Trying to get my DMA card to work. Popped it in another PC and worked, but that PC had Hyper-V off.
Secure Boot is off. Kernel DMA Protection is off. In the Turn Windows Features On or Off screen, it shows as unchecked! Gone into the BIOS and turned off IOMMU. Turned off memory integrity. Tried from command prompts to turn off.
Cannot figure this out.
Hi. I needed to turn on Virtualization (and set UMA buffer from 512 to auto, since pc would otherwise be stuck on black screen while booting up). Supposedly it shouldn't really do anything by itself, but it decreased my RAM from 15,4 Gb to 13,9 Gb. How is that possible? Is it a bug?
I guess lack of RAM is what's causing subsequent issues, but since then, gaming / graphics software had some severe stutterning / low fps. All of it is on SSD, but since turning Virtualization on, HDD had been strangely active during mention activities. I've read it might be something like the disc being used as addition RAM memory, since it is now lacking?
PC specs: Windows 11, Asus TUF, AMD Ryzen 7, AMD Radeon R Vega 10, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060. Main OS disc SSD (NVMe), secondary disc HDD (SATA).
Please advise : - )
Sorry for possible non-technical terms.
So I am trying to figure out what the best VM is to run for Running scans, testing vulnerabilities, practicing exploits, and learning to pen test, among various other things, I want to run Kali Linux, or any other Linux software that anyone can recommend. I am trying to break back into Cyber Sec, as well as figure out what avenue I want to go down in that career field.
