Using WHS and Windows 7 on the same machine.

I searched and discovered that WHS is running on Vsphere, but this

my situation and what I was wondering. I just bought these components:

GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3P

Intel Core i7-860

G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4 GB model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL

ASUS EAH4350 SILENT/DI/512MD2 (LP) Radeon HD 4350

LG Black 8 X BD - ROM 16 X DVD-ROM - model CH08LS10

Now I would like to run WHS on a virtual image and Windows 7 on

another. I will be ripping my blu - ray and DVD and I have plan of encoding

paste them into a mastroska or mp4 file. If I store the files on the WHS image,

There will be problems, their diffusion to the image of Windows 7 or any other

another computer on the network?

Now, I know that the realtek cards are not taken in charge, is there a custom

d 8111, if not if I buy a new network card. I'll be able to

create a raid-5 on this forum and have whs recognize it? Can also

use multiple monitors in vsphere? I also wanted to install vsphere

on a USB key, which will affect in anyway?

Thanks for any help.

Hello, yes you can easily run WHS and Win7 on a same machine, but...

I'm not sure that ESXi is the hypervisor desired for this project.  With ESXi, you can access ANY virtual machine console directly - all that the local display is the shell for ESXi very plain text mode.  There is the possibility to cross a second adapter to a virtual machine using vmDirectPath I guess, but there's always the keyboard and mouse.  Essentially, any race VM services network (only), or that the RDP access or other.

After what has been said, you could however plan to run Win7 host operating system (such as the computer is essentially just a PC Win7), and then to run WHS as a virtual machine in Virtual PC or vmware Workstation.

Anyway you'd probably want to 8 GB of RAM in the box.  Another issue is the affirmation of disc - is one of the most beautiful features of WHS Drive Extender, then you probably want to either assign virtually complete drives individually.  Balancing OF can create a good amount of disk IO when it runs every hour and could easily bog down the host if it executes all of the same SATA drive.

Please give points for any helpful answer.

  • Installation of Windows XP and Windows 7 on the same machine

    I install Windows XP on my Windows 7 computer.

    I tried to install Ubuntu, which has changed the BIOS and basically screwed.
    So I had to get the Windows 7 disc and repair the system.
    Would be the XP Setup something like that? If I had to get the Windows 7 disc, or the BIOS would be the same?
    It's that simple, install the operating system and launch it from the start screen?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    First thing to do is to check on the website of your computer manufacturer to see if this model of yours has XP drivers available.

    If no XP drivers are available for this purpose, you would be wasting your time trying to install XP.

    If the XP drivers are available, here is information for dual boot the two OSs.

    Ex:

    Please help me,

    Thank you

    You should not install client tools because they will be automatically installed w install the server. The 11g installation guide says "do not install client tools on the same computers that host your server instances Oracle Business Intelligence, client tools are already installed on these computers (as part of the installation of Oracle Business Intelligence)."

    so useful, mark it as good or useful.

  • Can I use Vista Upgrade product key on the SAME machine?

    I upgraded my Vista Home Premium to XP media Center computer, and now my computer runs very slowly.  I have 1 GB of RAM, but isn't enough for Aero?  So... what I really do is to perform a new installation to refresh my computer, but I can do after already using my key product upgrade once? (Now I have an external HARD drive to back up my data... I didn't when I upgraded).  The new facility will be used with the same upgrade DVD and product key, and it will be used on the SAME machine.  This is allowed, or vista become inactive and I lose Vista completely?

    Yes you can reinstall Windows Vista by using the Windows Vista Upgrade activation disk works perfectly. Make sure you have your 25-digit product key.

    Also, make sure that you have installed once are not dual boot.

    My advice is that you bring a new installation with Service Pack 1 disc as shown here:

    Follow the instructions for installation, as in this case:
    Please note that the guide is basis of Dell, F12 can be a different key on your machine and you need to get your site system drivers from your computer manufacturer Web but most of the others in the guide apply to all windows based computers.

  • can I use desktop using Windows 7 and Windows XP on the same network? I need allow sharing of printing

    I am trying to install 2 new computers running Windows 7 on one network of 12 others who are running Windows XP, do all need to have the same operating system?  I have a printer connected to the computer and cannot access it from my other computers.

    You can have virtually any network operating system support on computers on a particular network.  The only thing you can't do with Windows 7 computers in a mixed-OS situation is using the new "Homegroup" feature, because it's for Windows 7 only.

  • How to use HDMI and plug headphones at the same time?

    I'm running to a HDMI projector (via a HDMI-DVI adapter) for video and Composite (red & white RCA) using the socket for headphones and a splitter cable to a receiver of older Theater-in-a-box type for audio. But when I plug the HDMI, the headset turns off - no sound. I've seen people describe the ways to solve this problem for older versions of Windows, but I have Windows 8 and I'm unable to find. Thank you

    Michel,

    Apparently, it is not possible to output sound via the HDMI and the headphone jack at the same time.  But if you want to watch the video via HDMI and listen via the headset follow these steps:
    Right click on the speaker icon in the task bar > left, click playback devices > right-click on HDMI > disable.
    It works for me.

  • How can I use Adobe and a camera at the same time?

    I am a musician and I put to read sheet music and record with the camera to the IPad. But whenever I left the window of the camera and switch to Adobe agani, the camera stop recording.

    I can't save IM reading the notes of music at Adobe.

    I use Air from the IPad.

    Nobody helps me?

    Thank you.

    Hi Edusax,

    It seems to be the limitation of the device because it doesn't have the split screen function to use two applications at the same time.

    You will need two devices else you can print the PDF to read sheet music.

    Kind regards

  • How to use vGPU and vSGA both on the same host vSphere 6.0

    I tested vGPU on a host vSphere 6.0 to 6.1 of the Horizon, and I would now add a vSGA pool to this host. Only two physical GPU is used with the two vGPU vm that I turned on.

    My question is, what should I do to make this Host allow compatible vSGA VM turning on and share resources on the other two other GPU?  I put the office pool to use the 'Material' 3D rendering engine and added a VM pool.

    When I try to turn on the virtual machine, I get this error message in vSphere client Web:

    "GPU hardware is required but not available. The virtual machine will not start until the GPU resources are available or the virtual machine is configured to allow software rendering. »

    It's the output of command line gpuvm and nvidia-smi:

    gpuvm_nvidia-smi.png

    The host ESXi 6.0 has two cards of K2 of GRID for a total of 4 GPUS. Only two vGPU-enabled vm is turned on, it seems that I can use the other two GPU for vSGA VM, right?

    It is currently not possible since the Nvidia VIB:s vSGA and vGPU cannot be loaded at the same time.

    The driver will claim all compatible GPU:s (except those configured for passthrough, IE vDGA)

    An exception to this rule is if you have an AMD GPU for vSGA and a Nvidia GPU for vGPU.

    Can't comment on if, and when this will be resolved, perhaps krd can do.
