Tried to create a new virtual machine by using the Windows 11 iso I downloaded from the windows website. Restarted my computer and tried multiple times but whenever I start the VM, the screen ends up like this. Do kindly advise on how I can troubleshoot this issue! Thank youUser's image

    Hi Ryan,

    Thanks for your reply. From the error logs, there might be some issue with ISO or hypervisior, please follow the steps to narrow down this issue.

    1. You can create a new virtual machine and import the ISO again, see if it still corrupt or not.
    2. Verify the ISO location is corrupt.
    • Select the virtual machine and click on Settings.
    • Expand the SCSI Controller and go to DVD Drive.
    • Make sure that the Image file option is selected.
    • Click the Browse button.
    • Choose the ISO.
    • Click the OK button.
    • Restart the installation.
    1. Using the Generation 1 VM and check if it take effect.

    Best Regards,

    Ian Xue

    Hello,

    Found a link with an explanation

    The short answer: It’s because the virtual machine was created as a Generation 2 machine rather than Generation 1.

    Disable secure boot or initialize the VM using generation 1. This might solve the issue for some.
