[QUOTE="pontiend, post: 1070523, member: 275842"] The W10 edition already in Quick Create is the Windows 10 enterprise Evaluation Edition with a 90 Day License.I decided to install my own copy of windows 10.I got it installed with not too much trouble.I could not get the internet working though.I was getting no internet connection.Trouble shooting told me that it was the wrong ip addy.It was looking for ipv6.nothing that I did could get it working.It looked like it was looking for WiFi even though I was on local network.Installed Windows 7 same problem.Went to bed cheesed off. One thing that I knew, the VM cannot see the DVD drive.Though I did load w7 and w10 from iso's that I had on DVD, downloaded from MS some time ago.So even though the VM could not see the DVD Drive I still installed from DVD.That was the problem. This AM a brainwave arrived.The VVM can see usb sticks and external HDD.I copied the W 10 Iso from the DVD to an internal HDD.Created a W10 VM from that drive. Bingo my own activated W10 on the Virtual Machine. Now to find the next problem. That could be that I read somewhere that the VM was not persistent ie did not save any work done.It dose,if the same VM is started.I think that perhaps you have to create a new VM very time to have a clean install.I do not know if the word persistent is the correct term.It rings a bell though. Edit I wrote this load of tosh at the pub for any inaccuracies I blame the cider. [/QUOTE]
