bungee91 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I've read at least one report of QXL not working with Windows 7, and needing to select one of the different video options. I would try that, and if that doesn't help, a different version of Virtio drivers is likely the next step. Are you installing them as directed from the wiki? The recommended order is defined in step 5 here http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_6/VM_Management#Physical_to_Virtual_Machine_Conversion Quote Link to comment
peter_sm Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 There is a driver fore QXL that you can try to install. That are not covered in the wiki. Quote Link to comment
BobPhoenix Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I had the same problem and changing to cirrus on the VNC driver when I switched to advanced mode on the VM creation screen allowed me to install pass the same screen you are stuck on. Quote Link to comment
