I know this isn't exactly an unraid specific question, but some of yall are straight up wizards. But I've set up a windows 10 VM via unraid, and when I'm attempting to run a specific software, i'm greeted with a "Sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine" Now I understand its probably an anti-piracy measure, but I'm wondering if there is anything that I may be able to change in my vm set up to possibly get around this? ( the software I use is a 3d rendering/modeling software called Agisoft Metashape, and would LOVE to be able to run this on my server rather than my main PC ) I know its a long shot, and I may just be better off biting the bullet and building a secondary machine, but running a VM cost me nothing compared to spending out the butt for current PC part prices. wind10XML.txt

I'm playing around the idea of offloading my 3d rendering work from my main PC to my unraid server, running a windows 10 vm. When I attempt to launch the software, I get a "Sorry, this application cannot run under a Virtual Machine" error box. the software is called "Agisoft Metashape" and I haven't found much at all online about running it in a VM. It may simply not be possible, but figured I'd see if there were any ideas for things I could attempt. Hardware: 12700k, cpu's pinned, and my 3060ti fully passed-tru to the VM. Attached is my current XML set up. working VM.txt

Could you explain this further? its basically gibberish to me.

Could you explain that further? I don't currently have a flash drive boot, only internal boot. So I need to create a new flash drive for boot, and then use the wizard to get up the new drive?

So far motherboard swap has fixed it, hopefully I can get it RMA'd since you can't buy good lga 1700 ddr4 motherboards anymore.

I'm looking to change my current internal boot ssd to a different ssd. Not sure what the correct steps to take would be. TIA

I think i'm going to just replace my motherboard, start there. Memtest86 has passed all my ram sticks running multiple sessions, and the motherboard is the cheapest part i can start with. Looking for suggestions for the following: 6 sata port connections 2.5gb network LGA 1700 DDR4 I can get by with 1gb for now, and add a 2.5gb network card later, if I HAVE to I can get by with less sata ports. Just looking for something cheap and stable to test with and hopefully I can RMA my motherboard, but knowing how that goes, its a coin-flip.

I've been testing with a single stick in the system, and the issues persist Today 4-26 I've had the GUI fail twice, drives are still accessible via my pc, but can't log into the unraid GUI, only fix was rebooting, and then gone back the "docker service failed to start"

I have 4 sticks of ram, the likely hood of all 4 failing/being bad seems highly unlikely to me, I think for now I'll try a new motherboard, then move onto the cpu and ram if that doesn't fix anything.

4-24 crash Docker crashed "Docker Service failed to start" GUI is accessible, mapped drives on my pc are accessible. System was up for no longer than 17 hours before crash. epcot-syslog-20260424-2004.zip full_diagnostics.tar.gz

Updated with a system log of my most recent crash. Same as usual, sometime in the night drives are not able to be accessed from my PC, unresponsive GUI, system freeze/crash. per AI, here's the crash Apr 23 04:14:38 Epcot kernel: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference Apr 23 04:14:38 Epcot kernel: smartctl_type[569660]: segfault... epcot-syslog-20260423-1424.zip

Will do. When I made this post my latest attempt was to change my docker containers from macvlan to ipvlan, and that didn't change anything, this morning had a black screen, drives that were still accessible, but unable to access the web GUI and the docker containers were inaccessible. ( I was only running one container this time, plex ) Next on my list of things to do is change my cache drive from BTRFS to XFS to see if that helps anything.

Symptom: My server is unable to run longer than 24 hours without some kind of error. Its seemingly random, I can't predict or force trigger it to act up. Its generally one of the following Drives disconnecting/unable to be accessed from my PC Whole system lockup/freeze, can't do anything, can't access the gui, nothing. Have to hard-reboot. Docker Container errors, sometimes the containers freeze, lockup, docker crashes ( "Docker service failed to start" error ) Unresponsive unraid GUI, plugging a monitor in, there isn't any longer the wall of text, but just a black screen. (drives are still accessible from my pc) This system has been running well for the last 2 years, but starting at the beginning of this year, its been constant chasing of errors, system instability, and unable to run for more than 24-48 hours max without error. Things I've tried: Changing Ram ( I have 2 sets, both have passed 12 hours of MemTest86 runs ) Replaced previous cache ssd with a new one. ( Samsung 990 evo 1tb ) Changed Boot Flash Drives Upgraded to 7.3.0 and set up Internal boot to see if it was a flash drive error ( issue was happening on prior 7.2.4 release ) Downgraded again, and then updated back to 7.3.0 Bios updates on motherboard Disabling XMP ram settings Booting with 1 ram sticks Disabled/Deleted the majority of my Plugins Booted Windows on the hardware and ran Stress Test/Benchmarks on loop, and I wasn't getting any crashes. Bare minimum hardware, no usb's, no monitors, keyboards, etc. Just drives, cpu & ram. I'm currently testing changing my docker to run on 'ipvlan' over 'maclan' Hardware Intel 12700k ( stock settings, not OC'd ) MSI Z790 Pro Wifi DDR4 16gb generic DDR4 ram 64gb Corsair LPX DDR4 ram Corsair 750w PSU connected to a 1500va UPS ( with new batteries, replaced fall 2025 ) 6 14tb HDD's, 64gb m.2 ( unraid boot drive ) , Samsung 990 evo 1tb Cache drive Noctua DH-15 with plenty of fans and airflow ( its not a thermal shutdown issue ) No GPU The hardware is all about 2 years old, and aside from the HDD's, everything was purchased new. I'm not running any VM's, or doing anything CPU heavy, for now, I've been slimming my docker to the basic plex/arr stack, and get crashes. Forgive me for not being an IT professional, but I've put everything into chatgpt/claude and its just giving me loops of ram/ssd failure, which I find hard to believe that 2ssd's ( one new ) and 4 sticks of ram have all failed. I don't know if its a hardware issue, the only thing I haven't touched is the cpu, psu, and motherboard, and don't want to blindly start throwing money at things hopping its the problem when I don't even know if its a hardware or software issue. I've attached my full logs. Thank you all. epcot-diagnostics-20260421-2158.zip
