March 17, 20215 yr I have a issue when trying to create Virtual Machines on the system mention above. I create a Windows 10 VM with the Windows 10 ISO in and when on VNC Screen I hit enter to boot from the ISO. It will start to boot and get to a blue screen and then the VM just powers off and does nothing. I can not even get to install portion of Windows 10. I been trying to rack my brain around this for last 24 hours. Any help would be appreciated.
March 17, 20215 yr Is it just the VM that hangs? I've not had this issue. I'm using a Threadripper 3970X and ASROCK TRX40 Creator board. Are you trying to OC memory beyond 2933mhz?
March 17, 20215 yr Author It is. I am going to try a brand new install and see if it a issue. You do anything special in your bios?
March 17, 20215 yr Nope, I did notice instability when Overclocking my Memory beyond 2933mhz. After reducing it to 2933Mhz and finding the right timings to put in (my memory is ECC Unbuffered), everything stabilized. I'm using 8x8GB sticks (64G, 1G/thread)
March 17, 20215 yr Author Okay I am using 256 GB of Ram. I know Ram is stable on the board. It is at 3200. I been using it for last 8 months as a white box for ESXi but figure let me move my unraid to it. I just finish backing up all data now and going to do a fresh install . I will let you know how it goes and get some screen shots of vm issue if it happens again.
