![]() ![]() ![]() If your worried about crashing or "screwing things up" make regular disk images, specifically before any Windows cumulative updates and version upgrades, or driver updates. Sure but a better way is to install windows 10 in a virtual hard drive.Yep! This is the much better choice. Operating system - What is the difference between Full, Para and Hardware assisted virtualiazation.? - Stack Overflow ![]() This should get you started - light "Bed time Reading" !! If you are technically more interested read further on the differences between full and Paravirtualisation. Typical VM's used for software development / application testing etc such as used by VMWARE player / workstation or VBOX isolate the hardware quite a lot and tend to rely on a Virtual Bios. VM's can run things like photoshop, video editing, video playback etc these days - but serious gaming is another proposition where you will need to be able to access the hardware directly (GPU, CPU, Graphics particularly) or the experience will be a bit of a flop. If you really want to run this type of VM you really need to look at something like VMware's ESXI - that will work a treat but it's a bit picky to set up and needs exactly the right hardware (especially the Network interface cards) or it will fail. You'll either have to try using HYPER-V and enable passthru on the graphics card - not as easy to do if you don't know VM's - and HYPER-V doesn't have decent USB facilities if you need those too. You won't be able to do that properly with VMWARE workstation / Player or VBOX. Main problem with using a VM for gaming will be the graphics - you'll need to ensure that the VM runs graphics as near in Native mode as possible - and has GPU acceleration / 3D etc etc. At least a vm should be a bit more patchable/fixable than win10.Hi there Well I'd like the OS in a VM so when ti crashes it dose not really screw things up very badly. ![]()
