Upgrade fails with this error:

When I search through the setuperr.log, I found this:

I have already opened device manager, set hidden items to appear, and removed old orphaned devices. Still failing with this error. How can I determine which device is failing?

    Virtualization does not insulate from meeting the requirements of a supported operating system.

    I'd start by checking here and with server manufacturer about support for Server 2019

    Unfortunately, nothing suggested has worked thus far. I am going to build a new server and try to migrate everything over. Thanks everyone for their suggestions.
