This could mean Toshiba has turned it off for security or something. "Hyper-V cannot be installed: Virtuallisation support is disabled in the firmware." This is the message I get from hovering over the greyed out checkbox Hyper-V Platform in Windows Features. Is anyone aware of a bug in Windows 8.1 Pro resulting in Hyper-V not working? I am starting to think there is a known problem thatĢ. I spent 4+ hours getting bounced around Microsoft tele-operators/technicians The laptop manufacture Toshiba have assured me that the laptop has theĬapability and it is a Microsoft problem. Hyper-V manager opens but I cannot create a Virtual Machine. Hyper-V Platform - not able to tick (greyed out) Hyper-V - ticked with a square tick(Partial tick) In Turn Windows features on or off Window for Hyper-V it says Hope this process works for you.I bought Windows 8.1 pro so I could use the Hyper-V Virtualisation. You should be able to get Audio output from the VM on to your Guest through Virtual Machine Connection.

Some ideas I have in mind is to run the Windows Phone Emulator without Hyper V - but this is probably not possible. Maybe someone else has a good idea for me. I don't want to reboot my system to run a virtual machine.

I also would like to run a virtual machine on this system (VirtualBox, VMWare, whatever works). I know, there is a bigger discussion about this topic, but currently I did'nt find a good solution for this issue.įirst: I got a Windows 8.1 host system that uses Hyper V to run the Windows Phone 8 Emulator.
