I followed this tutorial to try and pass through GPUs to a Hyper-V virtual machine: My system has two NVIDIA 1080 Ti GPUs in it; and for some reason only one of them is fully working. Both of them show up in device manager in the VM: But in my application that utilizes the GPUs, only one...

I've got a general-purpose home server with an FX-8350 that's running multiple VMs, each responsible for miscellaneous things: Webservers, game servers, Discord bots, SVN repos, etc. Me and a friend have been developing a game in Unreal Engine 4 over the past few years. I tried creating a...

Hello community, I have a problem and cannot find a solution for this issue. I have for a render / ki project setup a Hyper-V host with different VMs. Each time when I start another render or job, I remove the GPUs from one VM and attach it to the next. This works fine without any issue. I...

It seems like there's a decent number of VM guys here, so... My employer has been slow to take advantage of virtual machines, largely due to a perceived security risk. In particular, this article talks about intellectual property/trade secret theft at a trading firm. A specific line from that...

Hi all, I'd like to buy up a 2nd-hand C2000 board (after checking that it's a newer revision that doesn't suffer from "that" notorious bug, of course). What are the notable differences between the Supermicro A1SRi-2758F and A1SAi-2750F? Requirements: mini-ITX form factor and silent (or...
