Hello!

I use Proxmox last version 4.2-2 on Debian-84-jessie-64-minimal on Hetzner server.


I created two virtual machines on Windows 8.1 (32-bit) and Windows 7 (32-bit).

In Win 8.1 successful installed Bluestacks, but failure installation in Win 7!
I think problem in driver video card.

In Win 8.1 256 Mb video. Why in Win 7 only 16 Mb ???
(sorry for russian language)


Video drivers


All settings VM completely identical! (I use SPICE display.)

and others options also same!
 
AFAIK the QXL driver is different for Win7 and win8 and above. so maybe the driver simply reports different sizes
is there a problem besides the shown video ram?

Bluestacks not install, says the problem in the video driver in Windows 7. In Windows 8 work good!
 
Yeah sorry you already wrote that in the original post, must have missed this.
It looks like to me that the qxl driver for Windows 7 does not support 3d acceleration at all which bluestack needs, so this will not be possible with spice and Windows 7
Sorry
