Issue installing Win 11

[jmztaylor]

So I am using an image downloaded directly from Microsoft.  I have nothing special setup for it.  I can get to setup and all the way through to the first reboot.  At that point it completely freezes and does nothing.  Hard reset of VM causes windows to say fatal error and to start install over.  I have ran win 11 VMs in the past.  Just don't know where to start.  Any help would be appreciated.

Switching to Q35 solved the issue.

This worked for me too. Seems like the Win 11 unraid vm template needs to be updated.
