I've been playing with HyperV as an {Insiders} on the IT Momemtum initiative, thanks to Dennis Chung . When I travelled to Redmond to attend MVP summit, I did a video interview with Adam Carter, and the video is released @ http://edge.technet.com/Media/Loke-Kit-Kai-on-Hyper-V/ . Never did video interview...
Not sure if this applies to virtualised instances of ISA 2006 on virtual server, but it sure does on HyperV. There are many variants of the problem which you can find on the internet. Here's mine I've set up ISA 2006 on a virtual host with three network cards. One for management, one for virtual...
Previously, I've mentioned that I've replaced my motherboard with Asus Rampage Formula. This board comes with a dual gigabit lan port. So I was playing with the network configuration on my hyper-v host. The LAN Left is where the virtual network switch is attached to, and all virtual machines...
Details and download bits can be found here . Just some additional details. If you have existing Windows 2008 virtual machines, you need to download this and package it into an ISO to mount it into the virtual machine's CD-Rom drive, as you will lose your network connections after upgrade. For your...
Found this will reading Ken Schaefer's blog. It is about moving your virtual machines around. While this seems to be better than exporting and importing, I still prefer the old ways of moving virtual machines. Just move the harddisk with the virtual machine configuration file. I haven't tried...
While there are two other products, like Visual Studio 2008 (which I should be more familiar, since I'm a Dev, but that's not the case, thanks to Windows Insider), and SQL 2008, I'm looking at Windows 2008 more than anything else, since I'm very interested in virtualisation. I've...

My last statement to Microsoft about the so called minority geeks who uses windows 2008 on their laptop with Hyper-V. If you are going to tell us that Hyper-V is meant for server only operation, hence you disable the sleep functionality on the laptop running windows 2008, you fix your virtualisation...
Especially if you are going to move between Hyper-V and Hyper-V / Virtual Server. First of all, if you need to move virtual machines from one hyper-v to another hyper-v, you need to do an export before you can import it back into Hyper-V. I didn't read the documentation with regards to what export...
I've noticed that all my virtual machines that was previously running on virtual server without giving problems, are now throwing "At least one service or driver failed during system startup" errors whenever they are rebooted. Event log shows that The parrallel port driver service failed...
